I do have a Mortgage Lifter developing on another plant, but it has a long way to go.

I will be participating in the Roots of Mercer County event on July 11th!

This event is to raise funds for the We are Mercer County group, which is advocating for more government transparency in regards to the proposed hyperscale data center not too far from our farm.

I will have farm items for sale, but I'll also have some information about some of the historic heirloom variety produce I grow and our heritage breeds of chickens and ducks. I'm going to try and actually bring some of these plants or at least some seeds. July isn't too late to start a quick "fall crop"!

Our little boy Ranger is putting on a tough guy act. He thinks we don't know he misses his (human) mom.

I was really sad to not be able to make it to a market today, but we needed the flexibility.

My Charlottesville Old bread seed poppies have been flowering! Poppies are such a lovely yet ephemeral flower. I wish they lasted longer

This old variety of poppy should have more striking red flowers, but I'm still happy with the gentle pink. Bread seed poppies tend to have cool colors, so this shade of pink is seemingly quite intense. I've seen pictures of Charlottesville Old however, so I know they can be RED!

Fireflies abound on our farm: we live in a low-lying valley that stays a little more moist, we have no artificial light at night, and we do not have widespread pesticide usage. It's a good place to be a bug!

Not only are fireflies beautiful, but they are indeed beneficial because they are predatory as larvae and eat grubs, slugs, and other soil dwelling organisms. Fireflies can stay in their larval stage for up to two years, but they'll only be in their glorious adult form for anywhere from a few weeks to a few months ( just long enough to reproduce).

Habitat loss, pesticide use, and nighttime artificial light are the biggest threats to fireflies. Please be mindful of nighttime lighting.

The farm is buzzing with native pollinators!

It's very rare for me to need to use pesticides, and I love my bees too much to spray anything that is flowering. I'm glad to finally see bees of all types of my Moje Hammarberg roses. I've been seeing bumblebees for a few weeks now, but it's only within the past one or two weeks that I've seen smaller, solitary bees/wasps.

Solitary bees tend to be very small, but you will find them if you look!

I'm set up at the Nicholasville Farmers' Market in downtown Nicholasville until 1!

I hang some particularly gorgeous Vulcan and El Dorado Swiss Chard, and my herbs are extra fragrant! Come out and get a great deal on dill!

I will hang some beautiful Swiss Chard at the Nicholasville Farmers' Market this Saturday, along with eggs and a whole bunch of fresh, fragrant herbs!
