    What did you do in your garden today?

    Today the weather cleared up and I was able to get the girls back outside. I managed to get a small portion of the run covered so hopefully they won't get as soaked.

    Indeed it's always on my mind. I'm keeping my chickens in the house until the next storm passes over. They were soaked to the point of not being able to flap their wings let alone fly.

    My new avatar is my back yard from last winter. That's the crazy that I had to deal with and generally I was always alone. So not good

    Apparently our neighbor did something to his property and now we don't see as much water as before. But last night I looked out the bathroom window and could see the puddles up close to the back of the house. When you have 6 animals and your the only one home you kinda feel like oh crap.

    Tomorrow I will get some pictures posted so everyone can see my yard. This morning my front yard had some small puddles. Tomorrow it will probably look like a small pond.

    What do you forage?

    I forage wild mustard greens. I have to start picking up the acorns to make some acorn flour. I don't know what mushrooms are safe to eat so no picking up any of them.

    Garden or not?

    I will grow anything that I will and will not eat. Reason being is my mom and my daughter in law. They said that they would like to get some however where they live there is no room for a garden. Even if I was allergic to some food I would still plant it for others that can.
