Tues was rain most of the day, then about 4:00 the sun came out and the temperature went to 68 deg. Saw som bees flying and took a look. After having given up on losing all my bees to the winter weathr, was pleasantly surprised all hives had actually survived.checked the food stores, and they are fine.. maybe we will have a honey crop after all. Just got a commercial brooder for the baby chicks and ducks soon to be arrivingto keep up with the demand for eggs. checked the wood chips that were innoculated with mushroom spawn last year and it is colonized with mycellium, so maybe the mushrooms will do well also. have to get to work now as everything seems to come down on me all at once.

Spring has sprung, the grass has riz, I wonder where the birdies is: anonymous
Yes spring is here and the ducks have started laying for those who have ben inquiring.
W just ordered a new batch of chicks as ths snow coverd winter has led the hawks to killing our chickens because they cant spot any rodents under the snow.. Our new vertical growing hydroponics setup has arrive aand we are trying 75 day neeutral strawberry plants in it among other plants. Have to protect it from the deer and woodchucks even so.
