Got our second round of tomatoes and peppers in the ground.

First round was those going to Rebloom Heirlooms( Terry Lambert)

Second round is for Seed Swap Central 🦊🌻(Free Trading of Seeds & Plants, Giveaways, & More!) 2026 grow out.

Super excited for both of these and to be seed saving for more than just our farm this year. We are still waiting on our nursery license to come through the USDA.

Dahlia seedlings, celosias, and some eucalyptus will be going in next while we have more mild temperatures and a forecast of more rain.

When you grow your own cotton, sometimes the most fun thing to use is your Electric Eel Wheel from Dreaming Robots. This is the nano and I love it so much! The bobbin on my nano 2.0 is not from EEW, but was made from another crafter on Etsy. I absolutely love this set.

I just set it up for the first time in my new home and I’m currently working on getting some cotton hand pulled and hand carded for the electric spinner. Absolutely ready to get busy!
