Tiny 'Ever' Greens & Golden Leaves

10/7/2020

0 Comments

 
It's the last week of The Farmers Market at Libby, but don't fret as I'll be in Troy on the 16th for the Fall Bounty Market and my Pop Up / Drop Off will start the Friday after that so you can enjoy fresh microgreens and eggs all year long!

This time of year the Dragon Dome greenhouse starts to work extra hard and it got a few upgrades just in time for the chilly weather to arrive!

The hens are still busy jumping from here to there while chasing those tricky grasshoppers!

And a few boxes of dried flowers were discovered so there is yet more to enjoy! Once the markets are over the remaining wreaths and dried bouquets will all be added to the online store and they will be available for as long as they remain!

With the end of the regular market season, I now have time to prep some beds for the fall plantings of garlic, tulips, and peonies!

Time to start getting my hands dirty, again!!!

The microgreens get to keep going and going, all winter long, a new form of 'ever' green! They are still enjoying the Dragon Dome greenhouse but their indoor space will be ready for them soon!
Picture
And the microgreens get to live in style as the Dome got a newly (and quite artistically) reinforced upper dome, so I don't need to rush to clear deep snow, and the inner layer of plastic covers it all so it can stay extra cozy for as long as possible, because the microgreens share their warm space with ...
Picture
... the tomatoes! Which are still going and still ripening!

A new, taller ladder helped to finish the work on the Dome and will help immensely with the long hours spent trellising the tomatoes all season long!
Picture
Plus!, the little lettuces that got tucked in amongst the tomato vines are perking up and growing fresh tasty leaves! Hopefully there will be a few salad mix harvest in a few weeks □□□□□□

Bae is finally free! A few weeks ago I noticed she was limping some and was being picked on by her hut mates, so I brought her inside to a nice warm towel and a pile of dried grubs to convalesce. As she got better she got a few outing to test herself but she is all healed and fancy free!
​I discovered an extra box of dried flowers that was tucked away safely earlier this summer, so there is still some to grab before they're gone!

We may not have the most fall colors here in Montana, but I'm quite happy with some glowing Golden Aspens under Very Big & Very Blue Skies!
