2019: Week 24

June 10 - June 16

Finishing Up Seed Tape

While making the last of the seed tape, Sam snapped this cute pic

Red Tailed Hawk!!

Sam found this fella on the side of the road and took him to a wildlife rehab. So cool!

Wildlife Rehab Info

These are the folks that meet up with Sam and took his hawk. We touched base with them and the hawk is doing well! They think it was concussed so it should be released very soon.

As a 35 year old, I can attest to this being totally true ;)

Veggie!

We spend right at $130 on these starts. Cherry tomatoes, slicing tomatoes, marigolds, basil, rosemary, dill, thyme, oregano, pickling cucumber, squash, zucchini, cantaloupe, watermelon, and peppers!

Veggies!

Sam, watering away! He’s been so awesome and has stayed on top of watering the farm.

Stocking Up

Hello, friend!

Do you see the deer?? This one has been sleeping in with the side flock. (There’s a video in this post of her leaving.)

Girls Rock Asheville

Camp starts this week and the showcase is the 22nd! I’m working all day but will be there in spirit.

DERP!

She joined us for an edition of chicken chat on our podcast. Such a good chicken!!

Hollyhock

We did a trial of hollyhock last year. We didn’t get flowers because we planted it too late but they came back strong this year!

Hollyhock

This is a double variety so the flower are extra poofy! Sam said they remind him of the white coffee flower we made for our wedding.

A very special guest on The Sam Squared Show, Derp joins us for an episode of Chicken Chat.

A neighbor's Great Dane attacked our chickens! Luckily, everyone made it out alive. Scrimshaw defended his ladies and was snatched up. He's bruised but otherwise fine. I'm breathless from running around and freaking out!

This beauty was sleeping with our side flock. I interrupted her sleep so off she goes!
