Stake it, Stake it
Stake your groove bing*
Stake your groove bing*, yeah yeah
Show em how we grow em now
*(or any other fruit tree you may have)
Well, I didn't stake my groove bing, but I staked my groove peaches at the church yard today as part of the green team effort. I will ask Paul, one of our supply pastors, whether he has a blessing for trees on Sunday. The only thing I wonder is whether people will have a problem eating peaches grown in a graveyard. Egad, what fertilizer! Also transplanted a lemon tree and a climby vine at home.
At the same time, I scattered seed for a butterfly/hummingbird garden, impromptu, as there is no plan for this one. Just what comes up where.
This was my last planting day until the first so I really tried to do all I could. But, Wednesday is bridge day at the senior center in Burgaw so I lost about 4 hours of daylight. It's alright though, it gives me a chance to use my brain instead of my brawn, at least for a little while.
On the way home, I picked up some bags of potting soil as I had run out. Once home, I transplanted the tomatoes into the cold frame and made a row for my basil. Ergo, peaches and herb. By the way, if you get the reference, you are officially old like me.
can't see me, can't see me
Oh crap!
I realize that my blog hasn't much been about chickens lately, but there is just so much going on now that I don't have time to watch them like I did. I do notice that the hens are facing off more these days. I think spring fever has them belligerant (sp?). Earlier, JW made the mistake of getting between two of them, to try to keep the peace, and got hit from both sides. The girls were having none of it. It's the first time I've seen JW nonplussed. Well, he did the better part of valour thing and split. The girls danced around a bit, all fluffed out then just walked off. Huh.
Well, time to walk the dogs. They get a long one today since there was none yesterday.
Farmer Ann out. Peace
Bak Bak
PS. I came in second at bridge today!!
