January 2015

 So this is 2015! Less Facebook and more blog!

In October I got another horse! Didn't plan to but that's how it turned out.She's a sweetheart and I can't imagine her not being here.We still have chickens about 100 but of course they are not all laying.This cold weather is hard on them.....one day they are out running around all over the place and the next day they are all cooped up! Spring is like 70 some days away.....yes,I am looking forward to Spring.Made some jelly in the fall and some beets and chow.We didn't have a good growing year here,no cucumbers! Other crops suffered as well,here's hoping 2015 will be a better year. 

January 2014

WOW 6 months' since I put anything new on here! That's terrible!We had a great crop of berries,best ever! U-Pick was awesome this year,I even got to make some jam.
We had a really good crop of squash,sold it all and all of the pumpkins.We had lots of gourds but they didn't sell so well.....oh well the chickens and deer really enjoyed them.
We had a mink in the coop on Jan 1,not a great way to start the new year.Geof killed the mink but not before it got 8 hens :( Such an evil creature!
We are enjoying our home grown meat chickens,they are delicious! 

The twins are 7 months old!! Just adorable grandbabies!!


What a winter!! A real winter......spring is 63 days away! I've had chicks on my mind....lol now that I know what the problem was with the incubator I won't hesitate one bit now.....fill er up! lol

Time for some pictures!!

June

Here it is,nearly the end of June and a soggy one at that. I must say it has been an exciting month for us;when grandchildren are born two at a time! Two healthy babies,Nathan and Janelle arrived on June 6th,both weighing over 6 lbs! So happy for our son and his wife......and big sister Danika!

We picked our first berries on the 14th of June!! We have a bumper crop! Just waiting now for this weather to break.The Valley Sunsets are just starting to ripen,so we should have berries for another few weeks :)

Some of these were sold at the Berwick Market,Geof took the rest to Dartmouth.
