Amy and Pearl

Our little micro farm in the back yard is doing fine.  Two new members of the sheep herd are Amy and Pearl.  They are Romneys, a sheep known for their fine wool. They originally came from a lush, wind swept region of southeastern England evolving from medieval long wool breeds.  In the early 1800s the breed was recognized as Romney Marsh sheep. (my 4H’ers have taught me everything I know)  Anyway they are cute and have a great personality.

This has been a great year for the vegetable garden!  Everything is growing in leaps and bounds.  We have had many meals which have included fresh lettuce, kale, and asparagus.  I can’t wait for each of our garden treats to mature.

The chickens have been working overtime.  We have found that they love vegetable scraps which we normally would compost.  I think we have the most contented chickens on the block.
