Y'all, what is sadder than a wet Polish chicken. . . . #chickens #chickensofinstagram #polishchicken #permaculture #homestead
Got some work done today on the new beds where I plan to put the tomatoes! 🍅 These have a layer of what I affectionately call "duck muck" on the bottom (thanks, ducks). That's topped with soil we had to remove to correct a drainage issue near the bird house. I'm excited to have so much more bed space available soon, especially with the fence right there to use as a trellis! Still trying to decide what to do with the grassy area in the middle, but it'll probably be a series of 3-4 smaller rectangular beds. 🌱 . . . #garden #gardening #backyardgarden #growfood #permaculture #organicgardening #homestead

My poor tomatoes were getting so leggy! We don't quite have the beds ready to plant them out, so I repotted them all today... good thing I've hoarded so many old pots! Tomatoes can grow roots along the whole stem, so burying them deep like this should result in much stronger plants. 🍅🌱❤️ . . . #tomato #tomatoes #garden #gardening #backyardgarden #growfood #permaculture #homestead
We've got Jeremiah (mostly) repaired and back on duty guarding the meat chickens. It's nice to see them out and about enjoying the morning! . . . #chickens #chickensofinstagram #meatchickens #scarecrow #permaculture #homestead
