Moe and garden update!

09/03/2011

Today, Moe went to a new family! We loved our Big Daddy Moe and look forward to meeting his 2nd set of off-spring in a couple weeks. He was a great Ram.

Other things going on around the farm. Last weekend I harvest approx 128 ears of corn :) I was very excited when I looked at the first ear and saw corn!

The corn was the "earlive" variety. It got 4' tall and gave 3/4 size ears, perfect size we think. It isn't super sweet but taste good

Harley and Pushy checking out the corn husks. Not quite sure what to think about them at first. We also chipped the stocks and have them in a bucket making silage out of it. No waste :)

I dug up some potatoes to go with the corn for dinner. The skin was very thin, but boy, these were the best potatoes I have had in a very long time!

And of course, what is summer without Zucchini bread? This is Blueberry Zucchini bread :)

Everything you described in the post about the rain and the garden irrigation updates, is extremely good. In my opinion it’s the most amazing work I have never read. I like this information too and also i am waiting for some new updates.
