Farm chores series - rewiring a cut cord

We have done this so many times. Fixing this cord so the fans in the shelters will run on these hot days.

The land doesn’t care about your feeling. About your sleep. About your schedule. It’s going to keep growing and the longer you wait the harder it gets to manage.

Like so many things… don’t put off to tomorrow what can be done today. Get to it.

Lots of new life on the farm. Took in four new cats and 20 chicks.

Happy 4th of July

🧷Okay, so…
In between Lola’s diaper changes, we’re trying to start a little you-pick section out here…
🌻
We’ve got sunflowers coming in… some herbs… some gourds…
and then… inside the garage… there’s a wagon…
The wagon has millet seeds… that I haven’t planted…
They’ve been waiting for two months…
So, yeah… we’re doing great, we’re fine, everything is fine. 😅 Real life, our farm, is perfectly imperfect and totally ours! 🙃💕

🌿 The Wagon.

Out in the yard, we’re dreaming up a little you-pick section 🌱
Sunflowers, herbs, gourds… maybe even millet.

Inside the garage?

There’s a wagon.

And in that wagon…
Two full bags of millet seeds (and 1/2 bag of sunflower seeds) that I fully intended to plant…
about two months ago 😅

So yes, some things are growing beautifully outside.
And some things are still sitting in a wagon, waiting for me to catch up.

This is what it actually looks like to build something from scratch.

Not perfectly timed.
Not perfectly planned.
Just… doing what we can, when we can.

Millet is still on the list 🌾
Right after I:
✔️ clean the garage
✔️ wrangle the animals
✔️ keep Lola’s diaper on (don’t ask 😂)

Would you still come to a you-pick day knowing this is how it starts?
