Gee! I knew it had been a while since the last time I did a blog here. .Boy, have I been really out to lunch. I have still been maintaining my two other blog. I am so happy. Spring is almost here and I have already gotten my garden prepared. I am moving it all to one spot near the house to make it easier to maintain. Maybe I will even keep it from getting a jungle of weeds. Last year I had disappointment in both by garden and orchard due to a late freeze. That is Mother Nature for you.
So what has happen since last June other than the garden move? Well I did move my herb garden. Next to the regular garden and near the deck we are going to build and near were the new breakfast nook will be when it is finished. We have it up and it needs so far the wiring, plumbing and all the other finishing stuff. Hopefully, that will be nice to grab some herbs for cooking and grilling.
I have rotor tilled most of the garden and was hoping to plant the potatoes this weekend. It started raining today and got cooler again so I may have to hold off. I did get the potatoes cut and ready? I am again this year going to use the Mittleider Method Blog again. Last year I trying some of the method, mainly the watering technique, and was rather impressed with the results and plan to use the fertilizer method.
This blog is primary about my activities on my farmette. Currently I am the caretaker of 2 goats, 3 dogs, 2 cats, ducks and chickens.I have a varitey of chickens but my two favorite breeds are Welsummers and Lakenvelders. I garden using the Mittleider Method Gardening which I have a lot of success using.
