Week 21

Howdy folks,

I was just out pulling radishes and some are the size of a banana. I couldn't remember what type they were so I came back in the house to check it out. They are a Chinese radish called Shunkyo, but the funny thing about it, the seed package said Shunkyo "semi-long"..not really.

We have got all the chickens from the back barn up in the new coop inside the front barn. They seem to like their new digs. There's been no drop in egg production at all and that usually happens when you disturb their schedule. Just a reminder that the chicken fence is close to the drive now and it's electric! (tell the truth, when you read "It's Electric" you thought of your favorite dance)

Just a reminder for you Fall soup makers, we have chicken necks, backs and feet to make your stock.

Went through all the bee hives today and there will be no Fall honey this year. A couple of hives had some excess frames of honey, but unfortunately a couple of hives didn't have enough for them to make it through the winter so I had to give them the frames full of honey. I just think that the incredibly wet end of summer didn't help.

In your crates this week:
