Farm Progress

Ok, meanwhile back at the farm... we did a couple of things over the last two weeks besides party. We harvested the first Black Icicle.

And ate it with seasoned salt. OMG! So good.

Rick agreed to trade some potatoes for potato leek soup. We all got lots!

We harvested onions too. All the garlic is up and cleaned up too. The last of the torpedo onions are still in the ground in row 2a but they are really ready to come up also.

We've eaten most of the apricots from the older tree, but the apricot branch is just coming ripe. The first plums are also getting ripe.

We moved the outside chicken pen behind the garden again. It's nice and shady, and full of clover. The grapes are loving it too, because they're using the rope and the side of the pen as a pergola.

My Indigo Roses at home are starting to ripen. I already picked a couple of borgs and the first serrano.

Can you believe this guy? It's just loaded with tomatoes. At least 50!

All of the basil and tiger pots are doing well.

And yesterday, we picked the first handful of Sungolds.

I got another coat of paint on the cabinet doors. It's gold spray paint, but I'm hoping it looks sort of antique. It will look great with the decoupage.
