Sustainable Living at its best, a rewarding lifestyle
We are transitioning into the Florida seasons, and will again be growing crops.....
The beds are being prepared for the gardens, and we are just keeping the grass mowed. We hope the rain and heat will not hinder planting tomatoes and beans.
Mother Nature usually wins no matter what you want, so you must have patience if you want to reap a bountiful harvest. It's rewarding anyway to grow your own crops and harvest them. |

Eggs, eggs, eggs. Farm fresh eggs!
Coming soon, younger hens for more eggs. They will have the freedom to wander around in the sunshine pecking for insects, and dusting/fluffing themselves in the hollowed out dirt piles, and providing us with healthy, organic, cage free eggs.
Egg prices fluctuate with the price of feed, and supply and demand. Currently we are holding ar $4/dozen. |

Roosters may crow, but hens get the job done.
Isn't that the case in life as well - okay, sometimes?
My butterfly garden has guests. Viv made it for me for Christmas several years ago, and it is time to enjoy it again this year. With no winter to speak of, the bees were busy and the flowers were in abundance.
Rosie B loved to sit watching the butterflies float with the breeze, landing on the flowers, and fluttering away. RIP Miss Rosie, and chase the clouds above us. You will always be in our hearts.
