Oh my, you did have a day of it! I have to get some of those root trainers--but I think you'd have good luck with any kind of container. Love...
Cheryl, could you line the basket with coconut coir or whatever that stuff is that is used in hanging baskets? It looks like an upside down...
Philip, I'll swap you two opossums for one hedgehog, shipping included. I loved your videos. Wish we had hedgehogs, but the coyotes would...
Nice! Keep an eye on that neighbor--there may be other treasures in the trash.
Those are gorgeous, and I hope your lucky birds appreciate them! The only thing I can think of for the blue one is Gorilla Glue (available at...
Oh sheesh! Frank, you are a stitch!
What a great sign! I'd seen that slogan on tee shirts, but it's even better on your gate. I want to put up a sign on our fence that says, "Bees...

Happy birthday, D! Best wishes from two farmers, six hens, and about 200,000 bees. May your day be filled with sun and a bit of soil.
Cheryl, your friend brought you "Bright Lights" swiss chard. Fordhook Giant is a great variety, and overwinters here. It was the "green" that my...
