What a wonderful weekend it was! We needed it to finalize the south flower bed, plant the tomatoes, and even managed to put in the garden at the back, all with the great help of Farmer Richard.

Sheep are known for eating grass down to the roots. Last year we started pasture rotation. Worked well. This year we’ve added a couple more goats o some of those pastures are no longer available. Solution? Put up a movable fence! They’ll be happy here for about a week! Or less!

When we moved here there were six flower beds scattered throughout the property. I soon figured out I could not keep up with them all. Slowly we started eliminating a few! Now we’re down to three! This one is the largest, and I really struggle with it. While I was pulling w**ds between the rocks I stepped back and thought, “why not move the rocks in?” And so it became a project for tonight! Still have to w**d the rest of it but it looks 💯 better!

We are heartbroken to have made the tough choice to allow this girl to go. She was very weak and sickly. Over six years, she brought us immense joy and many babies. Elizabeth was a devoted mom, a true comfort animal, and a food lover. She will be sorely missed by me.
