Good Things Grow Farm

05/30/2026

I don’t want to jinx it by saying anything but I think this weather is great! ☀️

The hay is happily growing, the fresh greens are so green and tall and apparently taste spectacular - I’ve consulted the experts on that 🐴🐰🐓🐹

While that all does its thing, I’m working on infrastructure with a new feed shed to store all feeds for everyone in one place and am fixing my small hay building because it sustained storm damage this past year and it’s time to take things apart and make it tornado proof.

Thankfully for the super hard lifting or carrying work I have a machine, and for inspiration I have the critters and the nature here! We have gorgeous native orchids called lady slippers and they are coming out now. We have all sorts of flowering native perennials and also in the gardens lovely plants and bushes that are now blooming. 😁💕

Of course being the silly person I am, I’ve gone and bought more bushes and perennial plants which I now have to plant sometime soon haha but oh well even though it’s more work it’s happy work! Now if we could convince the mosquitos to go do their work somewhere else that would be great!!

I’ll share some more photos soon but right now I think it’s time take a break and get in out of range of the bugs!

Remember all those little fuzzballs from before?

They are now fully feathered crazy scooting flapping ninja birds, wreaking havoc in their new pen.

Currently they are together but in what will seem like a too-short time they will be separated into breed groups and hopefully they will settle down because right now these chicks are wild! 🤪 😂

It is a bit hilarious watching them sort themselves out much like Lord of the Flies or Survivor vibes haha

One thing is for sure, they are having a cluckin’ good time!! 🎉🐥

Rain Rain, Go Away!

Wait …. It Worked!!!

So happy to see the sun out today and that things are greening up out there!!

Fresh greens are now available, as are fresh eggs!

Of course we always have hay, timothy pellets and cubes, chew stick bundles and treat pellets now too!

Hilarious how our weather goes from cold, tons of rain, right into tank top weather! Oh well the plants and grasses are fairly happy and the mud is begrudgingly starting to stiffen and hold weight instead of sucking you into it like black quicksand 🤣

New chicks got new digs this afternoon, they are a wild buncha little fluffers getting their feathers and thinking they can already fly!

Very entertaining!

BREAKING NEWS!!!! Things are Springing up!! It’s the Great Greening!!

And if the rain actually stops soon, and everything doesn’t wash away … that means new hay and the fresh greens are on the way!!

While it’s horribly rainy and super chilly out, we interrupt this relapse into wintery weather with some updates to hopefully bring the warm and fuzzies!
Well - we may not be warm and fuzzy ourselves but I can show you who is!

Some new arrivals are keeping us busy as the mature crew is starting to ramp up production. There is one over achiever out there by the name of Butterscotch who has given us a double yolker!

It’s big start to the season for us all - we will post updates and noisy cheeping videos as the new littles grow.

With the winter weather there comes more to do. It might be a bit of a struggle to get those things done because of that weather, and adds more to think about and things to work around while doing them.
That said, putting eggs in your pockets is not something that always works out in the end - regardless of the time of year. Oops! I did it again!
