The family trip to Mountain Valley Gardens in the springtime is always real exciting! We delight ourselves in seeing what new varieties/veggies/fruits we can try as well as picking up some of our favorites. We spent the morning dawdling around in the rain as we strolled slowly in search for our yummy food at the nursery.
After the fear of frost has finally (and hopefully!) passed, we've managed to plant all of our veggies as well as some fruits! In addition to planting our usual stuff (tomatoes, lettuce, spinach, carrots, sweet peas, zucchini, cantaloupe, watermelon, corn, squash, chilies, peppers, and cucumbers), we ventured into areas we haven't tried before. Trying out some artichoke, kohlrabi, onions and celery. We also planted a Honeycrisp apple tree and a couple grape trees. We shall see how successful we are in this endeavor! The raspberries, blueberries and strawberries are already coming in and the kids are getting so excited about the harvest on those little treats!
We ask the Lord for His blessing and success in this year's garden and for a bountiful harvest. Expect to receive many of these delicious goodies as we know we might have an overabundance and look forward to sharing with our friends and family. We tried many different varieties of some of our usual stuff (that we hadn't tried before) so we look forward to seeing what we receive.
If only we were allowed to have chickens in this neighborhood!! Anyone know any free-range chicken farmers in the Klamath Basin??
God Bless!!! Psalm 85:11-12
Looking good!
ReplyDeleteThere are some free range chicken farmers out off of North Poe valley road. Don't know if you consider that in the Klamath Basin. I have bought their eggs from Sherms, but they are spendy!
