Simplicity Rose Farm: Chickens are happy in their new home
http://simplicityrosefarm.blogspot.com/2011/06/chickens-are-happy-in-their-new-home.html
Thursday, June 9, 2011. Chickens are happy in their new home. We have 24 hens of at least six varieties. All are brown egg layers. They have a nice new hen house with plenty of room and a 40x40 ft pen in which to roam. They seem to be extremely happy to be outside and able to take dust baths, eat grass, and chase each other.

Simplicity Rose Farm: Our farm house
http://simplicityrosefarm.blogspot.com/2011/06/our-farm-house.html
Thursday, June 9, 2011. This is our "farm House." We bought a reconditioned small motorhome where we can sleep over, get out of the rain and get warm in the winter, and get cool in the summer. We have what amounts to a full hookup at the farm. AND, we can use it to travel when we want. We're really enjoying it. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom). Garden Treasures Nursery and Organic Farm.

Simplicity Rose Farm: Garden mostly planted
http://simplicityrosefarm.blogspot.com/2011/06/garden-mostly-planted.html
Thursday, June 9, 2011. June 9, 2011 - The garden is mostly in for this year. Strawberries, shell beans, summer and winter squash, pumpkins, lots of green beans, corn, onions, shallots, garlic, broccoli, cabbage, lettuce, spinach, leeks, fennel, and more that I can't think of right now. The weeds are also doing great. This weekend we need to do lots of weeding and then mulch with last year's dried grass to help control weeds and conserve moisture. Subscribe to: Post Comments (Atom).

I am a farm boy from Indiana who came to be planted in the Northwest (it's a long story). I am in the process of retiring and restoring a 100 year old house in Everett.

Simplicity Rose Farm: February 2011
http://simplicityrosefarm.blogspot.com/2011_02_01_archive.html
Wednesday, February 16, 2011. Today I planted 75 strawberry plants. 25 each of Tri-star, Shuksan and Benton. It was cold (about 40 degrees) and my fingers were pretty cold by the time I finished. There are freeze warnings in effect for later in the week. The strawberries will probably be OK but the bare-root fruit trees we planted last weekend might need some mulch. Tuesday, February 15, 2011. So I went on and tilled the entire garden (1/4 acre). Only the very lowest 2 ft were a bit wet for tilling.

ParkingSpaceGarden: October 2008
http://parkingspacegarden.blogspot.com/2008_10_01_archive.html
There is a lot of interest in producing one's own food. For many people who do not have access to good land, this is difficult. The Parking Space Garden is an answer for these people. Friday, October 24, 2008. Well, How did it go? The Parking Space garden was a limited success. I say that because of several reasons:. 1) It did not receive consistent care. I severely injured myself shortly after starting the Parking Space Garden. So the Farmer-in-chief was absent during some critical periods. It may have ...

There is a lot of interest in producing one's own food. For many people who do not have access to good land, this is difficult. The Parking Space Garden is an answer for these people. Sunday, March 21, 2010. As a result of The Parking Space Garden, dozens of people are now using the Grow Box design for their hme and patio gardens. My wife and I had a dozen boxes working last summer. We'll do that again this summer and at least two other local churches want us to teach how to make the boxes.
