Country Living

I wanted to show you the progress on our garden. We

went from Winter to Summer. When it finally got warm

the garden said "Thank You" and really

started to grow. We had a bad frost on June 10

that made us have to replant a few things. It even frosted

under the coverings that we had. We have been

eating a few radishes and will soon have strawberries.

YUM! The egg on the right is a large grade AA egg purchased from the grocery

store. The Brown egg on the left is from one of Sue's chickens.

It is actually about 1/3 smaller than the egg she gave us a couple

of weeks ago. I asked her if that chicken had died! I am sure

it let out some chicken expletives as it was laying it.
This will become my pride and joy asparagus patch in

a couple of years. I know it doesn't look like much right

now....but it will. More and more are coming up. There

for awhile I didn't think that anything would happen. We planted 48 roots! Asparagus takes awhile to get established, but then you have a 20 year crop. We are excited to watch it grow. We may get a bite next year, maybe not. But the year after, we should get a couple of cuttings.
