Chicken Hope for Next Year
Originally uploaded by fishpickdiver

Now that the chickens are done I'm sure you have noticed the amount of activity here seems to have slowed down to a snails pace... And I acknowledge that's the case... but only online! I have been taking some time to recover from the frantic pace over the last 2 months - but thing around the farm have been anything but "slow".
We have processed and put up an avalanche of beans - 16 jars canned (both pints and quarts) as well as around a dozen or so blanched and frozen beans vacuum sealed in the freezer.
Zucchini is appearing in breads, muffins, sauces, grills, soups... you name it - it's got some of the green veggie in it.
And the tomatoes... it started a couple of weeks ago with a few of the cherries turning red... then some of the paste ones... now - we stand on the verge of an all out tomato onslaught (yummy!)
We almost have the logistics of chickens worked out for next year - so start thinking about your orders...
