Ohiofarmgirl's Adventures in The Good Land is largely a fish out of water tale about how I eventually found my footing on a small farm in an Amish town. We are a mostly organic, somewhat self sufficient, sustainable farm in Ohio. There's action and adventure and I'll always tell you the truth about farming.

Up Close

I guess its Up Close Monday!

Dancing Stamens 

Helianthus

Cone flower

Beez on sunflowers

Apparently I'm the biggest casualty of the heat - I've been a bit under this oppressive weather.  Hope everyone is keeping cool!

Hope it's just the heat that's bothering you. Stay cool and keep hydrated. Hope you feel better soon.

Stay cool! We finally caught a break today, but it's supposed to build again. Yuck!

Thanks Larry, its kind of a funny story.. but I think I'll live. Trying to decide if I'll get a "cease and desist" from a certain large grocery store if I spill the beans that their stupid sausage nearly killed me. Them pigz may go early b/c we are OUT of our good sausage and well.. the rest they say is history. Never. Eat. Store. Meat. Again.

but i'm on the mend. great to hear from you, Larry!

Dave, I thought we'd get a cool morning but no such luck. Oh well... onward, right? Have a great day!

Sorry about that sausage...it's scary eating foods from the store and especially restaurants these days. Hang in there, hope you are feeling better.

Hope you feel better soon! I can't wait to raise my own piggies but that is still a ways off. I still hate eating store bought chickens but my peeps are just nine weeks old today.

Since when did some of the pictures on this blog become NSFW? Why are you cursing below some of the pictures?

I loved the Sunflower pictures in your other post, do you really make sunflower oil?

Thanks Mr. H, still hoping not to die. ick.

Hi Tracey! Great work on the peeps - you wont go back.

Its all my fancy floral words, CC.. ha! Nope it was Mr H. who was considering the press. But what a great idea.. now I'm thinking about it too.
