Cat Naps & Camping Trips

All your microgreen favorites are back and the Tulips are nearing their end!

There is still time to get some of the potted Ranunculus into the ground so you'll be able to see the wonderful blooms in your own garden this July.

And if you come to the markets, you'll get to see my mom, Donna, in action as she will be closing the Farmers Market at Libby for me and doing the Troy Farmers Market as well while I do some volunteer trail work in the woods (since the perfect mini-vacation from working in the field is to go work in the woods!!)

And don't forget to sign up for the Spring Farm Tour & Dinner, the spaces are filing up and seating is limited!

Some of the last of the Tulips are available this week! After they are gone, there will be a hiatus of a few weeks until the Lupine starts blooming...

...which they are working hard to get blooming as seen here in very early bud stage!

To prep for this weekends excursion, I got the old tent out to check I remembered how to put it up and sure enough it came back just like riding a bike and was up lickity split!

If you want to enjoy these beauties in your own garden, there are a few options available for the potted Ranunculus that are ready to go into the ground and start working on blooming these wonders (but if taking care of plants aren't your thing I'll have these in bouquets and bunches available in a few weeks to take home and enjoy with minimal effort on your part!)

On theses hot days, the hens dust bathe extra deep to get down to that cool damp earth to wriggle between all their feathers

The tomatoes are trellised and growing taller by the day as the Dragon Dome heats up to tropical conditions in this heat, which also means I make sure that everything has enough water because just like animals, plants can take a lot of heat if they can stay hydrated!

One way I keep the plants healthy while they grow and recover from transplanting in my thick clay soil is to brew them some tea! I make a weekly batch of Compost Tea that gets sprayed onto the soil around their base or onto their leaves for some of the flowers that like to eat with their hands □

The full variety of microgreens are back this week with some lush basil, crisp mild mix, and zesty spicy mix!

And if you needed some inspiration to eat your 'greens', just take a page outta Hella's book as she munches on some 'green's of her own

But when the heat gets just too much, there is nothing else to do but find a cool spot in the shade and settle in for a snooze
