Well not entirely, but it is coming! The first day of my favorite month, the first whole month of my very favorite season. Autumn, my favorite time of the year, hands down, I don’t even have to pause and make sure. And now that I am home from the asphalt jungle that is The Fair, … Continue reading
Moving Pictures
This is the one certain time of the year that I definitely don’t stick to my own guidelines of using only pictures from VF & G. September is the month that Vicktory Farm and Gardens moves into different locations. Early September we expand to the mountains, mid-September we move to The Fair. I had no … Continue reading
New At the Booth This Year
I always like to add something new to the booth each year. Last year it was the baby quail (cheepers) pen, that has turned into the baby pen because this year we didn’t have baby quail but we had baby turkeys (poults). But that wasn’t what was new this year, just changed up and recycled. … Continue reading

Space Race
This week’s theme,“Space Race”, for the Header Challenge was chosen by Mr. Frost, Gailsman. Since we don’t build rockets of the aeronautic type here on Vicktory Farm & Gardens, I thought I’d feature a rocket and pilot of another sort. Just up the street, our little local fair, Lacamas Community Fair, ran this last weekend. … Continue reading
"Landfill" or Was That "Land Phil"?
No, pretty sure that was “Landfill”, Imac’s choice for this week’s header challenge theme, so no pictures of Phil on his land (Land Phil) but now you are reminded of why Phil is called Dirt, you know…”Fill Dirt Wanted”. This then would be my pictorial representation of “Landfill” from the farm perspective. I have no idea … Continue reading
