Tea Garden Project Continues

The Tea Garden Project which we started in 2016 continues with a new Tea Pavilion. We painted a tarp cover and Seth built a table for the space. It’s Lily’s favorite spot to take Fluffy and Peanut, the two bunnies, to play.

Fodder and Winter Rye

High Today 82 !!
Low tonight will be 62

Hancock Seed Company – Dade City. Bought 4 (50) lb bags barley seed for fodder and 2 (50) lb bags winter rye to seed the pastures.

Started soaking barley overnight for germinating in the next two days.  Remember the fodder from last years.   We used barley and oats.   Germination on the barley was much better than the oats.
