May Days -- Garden mostly in!!!

5/19
Hubby and I were busy this weekend...37 tomatoes, 20 peppers, 2 rows of potatoes, eggplant, Brussel sprouts, cabbage, kale, spinach, various herbs, sweet potatoes, celery, beans, marigolds ...and maybe some more all planted....more to go but we are pooped. Need more space in our garden so may be adding on...

Peas are up and looking good, as is the onions! spinach didn't come up so replanted, lettuce is tiny but there, so will have salads soon! Even with flooding twice the strawberries that we planted are looking good.  The asparagus is seeding and didn't harvest any again this year due to not being much (I think the chickens were in it prior to the fencing being up the whole way around the garden in really early spring) Bartered some eggs for some plants today also! 

We got 23 eggs out of the coop today, have 1 broody hen who should be hatching this coming weekend.  Another hen just went broody and is trying to steal eggs :)  Lost one rooster a couple of weeks ago to unknown cause, but pretty sure there are a couple of roosters with the new peeps we purchased. 

Goats are doing well, the baby is getting big and mamma is doing well as long as hubby is the only one to milk her- we are getting a little more then coffee cream at this point so coming along.  Copper is low though and we ordered a supplement.  

Lots going on and lots more to do, busy weekend ahead!
