Today in the life of Fat Toad Farm

by Hannah on June 14, 2012

Here’s what’s going on here at Fat Toad on this gorgeous Thursday afternoon in June.

The peonies are popping -alluring to bees and humans alike with their lovely scent and pink-pink-pinkness!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Melissa is transferring compost

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The strawberries are growing – grow, little berry, grow!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Elisa is feeding the chickens and collecting eggs

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Calley, Katie and Lily are processing caramel – fill, cap, seal, repeat.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

The irrigation hoses are drying in the sun

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Judith is in the garden planting Flint Corn in the garden

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Thunder is chillin’ like a villain in the shade

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Farmer Steve is on the road today, so our neighbor John is filling in – chainsawing things that need to be chainsawed

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

…And as usual, I am in the house, clicking away at the computer and drinking heavily… which is especially awkward as I am nearly four months pregnant.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

(Actually, I’m working on testing a new flavor of liquor caramel, but the first story is more entertaining.  :)
