How Shocking!

Not really, truth be, the opposite of shocking. It is vacation time from teaching for Dirt, that means picking up where he left off on big projects.  On that list, the electricity in the Hippy Hot House was at the top.  Up until now my electricity has been delivered via drop cords, several.  Not very … Continue reading »

This then would be my pictorial representation of “Landfill” from the farm perspective.  I have no idea … Continue reading »

Some Can Handle It And not just me, Bet and the resident weather watcher, we love it, the peas love this stuff and if I were braver the early cole crops would have been transferred out to the Market Garden already as well to love it.   But … Continue reading »
