April Update !

Has it been a month already ?!

I do love our monthly update, getting to look back at the work and the rewards is a very satisfying experience.

We picked our first crop of  radishes & made a delicious soup from them. Check our recipe for Radish Greens Soup.

Yum

Our potato system seems to be working out very nicely. In just over two weeks we are seeing marked growth improvement with our updated watering system. 

Before ( 4-12-13 )

After ( 4-29-13 )

While it is not yet quite canning time for us in California we did come across these cool 100th Anniversary Ball Jars that we can't wait to fill with jam. 

Because we have Blackberries & Strawberries coming in 

Finally, for anyone interested there will be a new Chard Wars post on Star Wars Day ( May the 4th )

Coming May the Fourth ( be with you )

As spring turns to summer more and more is happening on The Littlest Farm. Things to look forward to in May include our chicken coops, lots and lots of growth in the veggie garden and a detailed tour of our flower and herb garden.
