Since I didn't post much (if at all?) in March, I thought I'd give a rundown of some of the farm activities. It was certainly a busy month, and it seems as if we had no spare time at all... which is understandable considering the season. So much to do in spring...
Chickens and quail alike have started laying really well.
We bought the first purebred chicks we've had in years:
Lavender Orpington and Black Copper Marans.
We did a major cleanup around the farm. And I mean MAJOR.
Started lots and lots of veggies from seeds in my wonderful greenhouse.
Tested our brand new incubator (more on that coming up in a future post).
Started preparing our garden plot. It'll be the biggest garden we've ever had- a quarter acre!
More eggs.
We planted some grape vines, raspberries, blueberries and strawberries.
Worked on replacing the horse barn roof (more on that in a future post).
Repainted one of the upstairs, kids' rooms.
Did I mention lots of eggs????
Snakes are coming out!
And last but not least, we are incubating more eggs. :)
