Tales from Skunk Hill

Spring Fever

The warm weather finally overwhelmed my common sense and I planted peas, lettuce, and potatoes today.    I planted 2 kinds of peas, about 30 row-feet all together.  I planted about 10 hills of russet potatoes and 10 hills of red potatoes.

The bees agree with me.  I went to see visit the hive and they were buzzing in and out.  I was considering feeding them, but they were coming back to the hive heavy laden with pollen, so I figured they’re doing all right.

The chickens agree with me too.  We continue to have an abundance of eggs.  We’ve made more egg noodles, and the eggs continue to pile up.

Spring is here!
