Come pick veggies!
We have a huge amount of ripe vegetables. If any of you are anywhere near us, please call and let us know when you would like to come and pick some. We have melons, yellow crookneck squash, zucchini, armenian cucumbers, burpless cucumbers, LOTS of tomatoes and cabbage, corn, fennel, onions, etc.
My mom was out last week and had one of our canaloups. She said that it was the very best cantaloupe she has ever had. The tomatoes are ripe in every size and color.
PLEASE come pick some and get yourself a dozen fresh eggs from our freerange chickens at the same time. the picture above shows us moving some of our chickens in their coup. I call this "Summer Vacation okie style".
I love the photo of the farm taken from up above.
Our friends Johnny and Keith Johnston raise horses. Last Friday night, on eof their mares had to be put down. They called me Saturday and asked if I would be interested in raising her 2 month old orphaned filly. Being of unsound mind, I said "sure". She had never been handled so I have spent the past few days working with her. She has gotton to be a really sweetheart.I have named her Sugar.
My 84 year old step father/author, Cliff Tucker came out to volunteer on Friday. He worked around the fruit trees. While he was busy, my Mom and I picked a bunch of veggies and took care of the morning chores. It was a great day.
