Goonie Rhubarb Farm

MAY 6TH, 2008


Well,

Here I am writing a new blog on our new website.

What have we been doing since I wrote last?

Well, I guess you could say we've been settling into our first spring on Goonie Rhubarb Farm. The corn was planted today. Bodacious, and a certain someone's favorite...Golden Jubilee. The green beens will be going into the ground very soon, and as with the Golden Jubilee, we have a certain someone's favorite in pole beans also...Blue Lake!! According to that certain someone, they are the only beans worth growing. :)

The construction for a lettuce cold frame is well underway, and more importantly, the outhouse birdhouse is now perched high above the kitties reach, and has an extra ounce of safety ( take a gander at the included pic of the day) ...brought to you by Rhubarb's keen morning mind! :)

The kitchen at Goonie Rhubarb Farm is starting to fill with the veggies of spring; provided by the local farmer's market. And the excitement of the steadily imposing summer is beginning to tease our appetites for tomatoes and peppers. From our own dirt naturally!

Goonie's tummy is really starting to bulge now, and it is obvious that there will soon be a new workhand on Goonie Rhubarb Farm! Well, at least in the next 5 years or so...:)

Thunderstorm clouds are circling above us, and Rhubarb is watering our newly sown corn. Dinner is near...so I'll be getting to it. Home made pizza and leftover asian noodle salad. It's a quiet May evening meant for making a spot of dinner, and gettin' to reading the book from our family bookclub.
