Windy Days

The last couple of days were unpleasantly windy. That kept me inside more than I would have liked. We still went to the farm. The cherries are almost ripe.
The chickens are endlessly entertaining. We call this "farm TV" and yes, we ARE easily amused.
I planted some starts in my back yard. Because of the wind, I watered them well, then covered them with pots the first day. On this end, nearest the mandarin, is a hill of three dancing gourds in the back, and a hill of three Boston Marrow in the front.
Next spot over (about 6 feet apart) I put another hill with Galeaux pumpkins.
And on the end, between the apple and the compost pile, I put another hill of three dancing gourds. I've started to get this area mulched too.
