This is where I talk (mostly to myself) about small-scale farming, cooking, preserving, crafting, raising livestock, and getting out of the system.
Whew! It's been wet, windy and hot here in Oklahoma. This sunflower was purchased as a pepper. I've decided I want to be the person that sticks plants in a pot and just sticks a random label on it. Kind of like my bush cucumbers that are growing over the top of the fence. LOL! I'd also like to be the person that names paint and crayon colors, but that's neither here nor there.

Hopefully I can get rid of the grass/weeds growing in that area. I still have more than needs plastic, but I've also got to get more posts driven and panels up. It hard to get it all done when you work off the farm during the week. I've spent several nights out after dark trying to get something done. I'm hoping that next summer I can grow enough to share and maybe sell a bit. Right now it seems like a big goal. The egg stand is doing well. ...
