Happy October! It is nearing the time of year when we move the chickens from their outdoor coop to their barn coop . . . to keep them a little bit warmer and to save us from having to let them in and out each morning and night. It is kind of a bummer because they do add a certain something to the farm - - watching them scratch the compost pile for bugs or perch themselves on a fence post. They are impossible to photograph because they are always on the move, but here is two of "the ladies" headed into the field one morning this past week.
This is our busy time on the farm - thousands of pieces of fruit to pick up, the leaves have started falling, and putting the garden to rest for the next several months is a ton of work. We are happy to report that we still have some things growing in the garden - lettuce, spinach, arugula, parsley, cilantro, pumpkins, and two kinds of squash.
