Is it really almost June? The days are passing by so quickly.
We have been having so much rain that we are running behind on farming and gardening. We will get caught up soon though.
Corn is all in and planted. Soybeans, eh... still working on that one!
Facebook shared a memory with me the other day. May 26, 2016 we picked our first vegetable. Interesting.
May 26, 2017, we PLANTED our first row of vegetables. Better later than never, right?
The morel season was not a stellar one for us this year. It was a record low number of morels picked between us and my parents. This guy was my big find, but I didn't take him home with me. He was so water logged when I found him, I am surprised he held together long enough for me to get a picture of him. (Yes, the mushroom is a he 😊)
Our beautiful little Black Copper Marans are growing up. We started suspecting one might be a rooster. Notice the bigger comb on the chicken on the right? But, we've had that happen before and then we end up getting an egg!
But then something else happened. The sun came out, and we could see all the beautiful colored feathers that this boy has. If you know chickens, you know roosters are the more colorful and striking birds. And this boy looks to have some amazing color. I never know for sure until they crow, or lay an egg, but I am not making any bets on eggs coming out of this guy!
I wish the pictures were better of these two, but they are jumpy when I am around. And it's hard to get them to pose for me.
So, tell me, have you planted your garden yet?
