I thought I would share a few tidbits from the farm, and catch you up on what’s been going on. We’ve had a VERY busy spring, and keeping up on all the farm chores, our “regular day jobs”, and every day routines leaves little time for anything else. But we love it, and welcome each new day. We’ve got five kittens on the farm, old enough now that they’ve started bravely exploring the area around the storage/feed shed they live under.

Oddly enough, the females are the friendliest of the bunch. Usually, it’s the boys. When they’re old enough, they’ll visit the vet for a little snippity snip, and come back to the farm and take up residence in the barn.

The garden is growing, and just starting to produce edibles. We enjoyed our first picking of green beans on Friday, and we enjoyed our first zucchini on Saturday! We’ve got more zucchini ready for picking, as well as a patty pan squash, and a handful of beans. The cucumber vines are LOADED with flowers, but 99% of them seem to be male flowers. Hopefully the female flowers will be along soon. The tomatoes are doing well, and I’m starting to see a few hints of red!
