Serendipity... :)

 

Busy Chickens

 

It's so peaceful to watch them peck around.

Hostas Are Blooming

Such delicate little blooms.

After thinning the hosta bed at my dad's home about four years ago, I brought home some raggedy little plants and plunked them in my front bed with hopes they'd survive.

They have completely exceeded expectations.  

Herbs

Although I'm fairly new to growing herbs, I've enjoyed feeling some success. 

 

Daily Harvest

 

My harvest isn't huge, but it's so satisfying to see it each day.  I nearly always snap a photo.  I just can't help it.  I think it's so pretty, then I scroll through my phone and see that I have a dozen pictures of daily harvests that all look pretty much the same.

Catching a Possum

Our woods have many possums, I'm sure.  

But, this one was much too interested in the chicken coops.  

 We wish him the best of luck in his new forest home!

Lots of Deer

They like the meadow just on the other side of the pond.  

As we come around the hillside, they always freeze and stare at us.  Then one will make a sneeze-like sound, and they scatter.

 

Bell Peppers

My red peppers and yellow peppers have decided to stay green. That's okay. 

Big Snake

 Sssssome forest friends are not as welcome as otherssss.

So Many Tomatoes

The counter may be full of cookies in December, 

but I'll choose the July counter when it's full of tomatoes. 

Okra Bloom

 

Okra blooms are the prettiest of all.

Basil, Oregano, & Chives

Fresh ingredients for spaghetti sauce. 

Chickens in the Yard

A yard full of chickens = a happy yard!
