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.

Sunday Snaps

Scenes from this morning....

The blueberries are stunning already....

And I'm so excited about the broccoli!

I planted this buckwheat as a cover crop to till into the soil to help enrich it...... but the beez are buzzing all over the blooms - so it stays.

Beans are popping up!

Guineas roam on clover


And The Bubby loves the tub. The BubTub. He can't get enough of the water. He's gonna be our waterdog for sure. And no, that's not a small stock tub. Its a big Bub. Hey L! Are you gonna call him TubHead now? HA!

That's whats happening here. I'm expecting a slow down in egg and milk production from this heat. Things will get back to normal later in the week when it cools down. Nothing to do but keep your barnyard hydrated folks!

Happy Sunday!

You will need a full-size swimming pool for that beast! Wow! And I'm jealous of your garden, although mine isn't too far behind...

thanks Dave! i started these from a six pack several weeks ago. but you can bet i'll be starting a bunch of seeds for a fall harvest! i've never been able to get it to grow before!

aint the right, Free! we are gonna take him down to the pond soon - he's gonna go nuts over it. Kai and Ti are good swimmers - Z will have a blast.
