Roma Tomatoes Planting Today

Roma tomato plants going in the ground today. A healthy helping of horse poo will feed them well. Feeding my plants well with all natural elements, the way nature intended, is the best way to feed myself.

Beefsteak variety going in next!

Now can anyone guess how I grow tomatoes, every year in every state I’ve lived in (MI, FL, KY, AR, MS) without EVER watering them once planted out in the garden? Yes you heard me right. I HAVE NEVER EVER WATERED MY GARDEN TOMATOES IN 20+ years of growing them, yet they always produce. They never die from not getting enough water. So how can I do this?
I look forward to seeing your input

Tater Time!

My first planting of taters are up! Yippee skippie
Check out my LUSH white clover field. All hand sown and meticulously maintained by me. I lost count how many times I’ve walked that field with my trusty shovel to hand dig out noxious weeds that my animals won’t eat. I’ve under sown Bermuda grass and will add some more lovelies as time goes on!

Garden Coming Along Nicely

Some garden update pics….
I really had to get up close so you could see those teeny tiny carrots coming up FINALLY!
Onions 8” tall
Turnips 4” tall
Kale, mustard and turnip greens all 2-3” tall.
Baby cabbages, broccoli and turnip greens just coming up out of the ground.
My lovely beets already 2” tall
More teeny baby beets just coming up.
And my turnips from last year are done flowering, now making seeds.

My first planting of potatoes should be coming up anyday now….

Cabbages Going To Seed!

Check out my cabbages going to seed for me! Such little cuties!

Today I’ve planted garlic cloves, garlic scapes, turnip greens, beets, lettuce, kale, and mustard greens. Now on to the last bed with red onions. I have 2,500 linear feet or roughly 1/4 acre, of garden planted already. Soon I’ll be starting on potatoes — reds and whites!

Turnip Seed Harvesting

Would you believe this gorgeous plant is just the lowly turnip going to seed? Isn’t it amazing how beautiful vegetables can be?! I have a whole row of these lovelies that will give me fresh new turnip seeds for Fall harvest.

How they look when all budded out but before the blossoms open
This delicate white and pink flower is a radish going to seed

Pupdate!

??UPDATE??

The male pup has been sold. Only the 1 female pup from this litter is still available.

2 brother and sister litter mates, rolling around in spring grass having a good ole time.
She says: PET MY BELLY!
so of course I must pet her belly. Lol
He says: AINT I ADORABLE!
So of course I have to rub that little adorable chin. Lol

These 2 crack me up.
See comments under each pic for more details.

This is the female. She should not have any badger markings left at all. She’s almost lost them already. Born Dec 10th. Ready to go to her FURREVER FARM or HOMESTEAD to work for your livestock. Price is $600 right now. As her training and skill sets improve, the price will increase accordingly.

Gardening On My Birthday!

What do I spend my birthday ? doing? Why planting garden beds of course! Lol

Another garden bed tilled and planted today! This bed has yellow onions and carrots in it. Planted together, carrots and onions make superb garden companions. They repel each other’s insect pests. This heirloom variety of carrot comes from Russia and is similar to the Danvers half long in appearance. It is dark orange to almost reddish in color. High in beta carotene and with natural resistance to insects.

400’ of onion and 100’ of carrots.
Added to the previous bed gives me a total of:
700’ of onions and 200’ of carrots planted so far.

I still have red onions to plant plus more whites and yellows after this planting is finished. When I’m done I should have close to 1500 linear feet of onions in the ground. Hope y’all like spring onions!

My winter wheat is looking lovely. It’s starting to jump up and green up now. Remember this is PRAIRIE GOLD, NON-GMO, ORGANIC WHEAT! It does not have adulterated gluten like most modern commercially grown wheat has been.

If you or a loved one have gluten problems, you may want to try this wheat flour. Many of my customers report they don’t have side effects after using this flour. *Disclaimer: I am not a doctor. Please consult your physician for medical advice.

Get outside y’all and enjoy this lovely spring weather!
