"Super Blood Wolf" moon rising above the cornfield tonight. Hope I can stay awake for the eclipse! We're hoping for more snow this week and maybe a little less single-digit temps. But hey, we take what we get. :-) ❄️⛄️

Still supplying the Dubuque metro area with all of the squash it will ever want or need.... so many zucchini this year. 😁

07/01/2018

What's on the menu tonight? (I kinda forgot this radish was there...he's a big one.)

06/21/2018

There would be pictures of the first summer squash harvested today...however they became supper with the first green onions. And they were delicious!
Fortunately, the radishes are being saved for someone else to enjoy.

The old concrete coming out to make room for a new floor.

The big garden is looking pretty good! The sweet corn is right on track. We even have a guardian who loves to show off his gorgeous tail feathers and Cliffy, our cat food-stealing c**n.

05/18/2018

The big garden is tilled and ready to go! The little one, too. If any one needs some to till for them, Justin did a fantastic job!

05/18/2018

The gardens are tilled! Pictures forthcoming (it's too dark outside).

Wish we were done with storm clean-up. Dragged up two more trees today myself. Have several others to trim up. Spent lots of quality time with my John Deere. :-)

07/14/2017

The trees at the farm didn't fare so well this week. Looks like we're going to spend some quality time with a chainsaw. If every storm would quit including 70 mph winds....

It has been a quiet year, unfortunately, as we deal with some health issues. But the deer, turkeys and groundhogs appreciate the solitude. 😀 We will try to post pics, but the critters are pretty camera shy.

Mother Nature has been a little mean to us this week. Hopefully the next time she gives us nice, sunny 65+ degree weather, she won't take it back so soon.

Whew, starting to win the war against the weeds. They love these rainy days. And finally realized that the "weeds" I've been trying to kill for the past few years are actually Grandpa Miller's horseradish. These plants are tough as hell to make it through years of plowing, spraying, hoeing and mowing- they're gorgeous.

Spring is nearly here! After the whirlwind that was 2015, we're hoping 2016 is a little more laid-back.

07/27/2015

Second harvest.

04/12/2015

Thanks to our neighbours at Four Mounds Foundation, the 1/4 acre that used to be the family garden is back again!

06/22/2014

Finally got the tractor. This will make a few jobs a little easier!

03/23/2014

Started seedlings today. Didn't want to start with too many since it's still pretty early.

11/02/2013

Just arrived: a new tiller to help us get ready for next year!

To***co ready for fermenting. Shouldn't be too much longer and it'll be ready to shred into a final product.

08/02/2013

HONEYDEW! YAYY! Thanks to Linda for the original fruit.

Redneck scarecrow. Hope he keeps the deer away.

08/02/2013

Nice tall to***co with beautiful flowers. They actually smell good, too!

07/27/2013

To***co is getting so tall! Flowers are blooming today.

07/26/2013

Sweeeet corn!

07/26/2013

Baby watermelon! Woohooo!

07/18/2013

Harvested two nice-sized summer squash tonight! More to come! There just may be some honeydew coming out too.

07/07/2013

The accidental winter squash. They started out as last year's compost/deer food and ended up as the largest squash plants we have!

Summer squash "baby"
