Today I worked in the yard from about 11 until 3 and then again from about 5:30 til dark. From 3 to 5:30 I was gone getting feed for the pigs and chickens.
I got some weed eating done and some of the trash and debris in the yard picked up.
I bought a foxglove at the store the other day. It was absolutely gorgeous and I had never seen one…I fell in love. It is a perennial and should spread like tulips and such do....next year I will be ordering bulbs that are of a different color…my hope is to have a whole front yard that blooms in different areas over the seasons. If I could do all flowers and not have grass to mow that would be okay with me. Our front yard has a good amount of trees, most of which are fruit trees, so it doesn’t get a lot of sun during summer time so I have to do things that are partial shade there.
One of the garden areas is planted. In this one I have 6 squash plants and 18 different tomato plants…with 3 varieties..large cherry tomatoes, homestead tomatoes, and heck I can’t remember the 3rd one right now. Down at the end where Morgan is standing we planted the grapefruit tree that we bought last year. The colored pots hold green onions, snap peas, jalapenos, okra, and Brussel sprouts.
Gracie, my Chiorkie and one of the Red-Blue Cochin Roosters was enjoying the fresh cut grass this afternoon
Oh this is the veggie salad I made for dinner last night to go with the meatloaf. It was SUPER good…
I bought some Arkansas Traveler tomatoes and we put them in their own little spot today. I didn’t get photo’s of it as I forgot so I will post them tomorrow.
