to use this weekend. A Mexican sage (salvia leucantha) to attract
hummingbirds will do the trick!
In the background are green cabbage and lettuce. The black patch of
dirt has some chard seedlings and fava beans sown from seed pods given
to Jennie by *her* co-worker from his crop last year.
This week's chore is eating kale. We are behind.
The chickens are doing well and starting to eat a fair amount of our
kitchen scraps. We went to Mike's Feed Store in San Leandro yesterday
to pick up our first 50lb sack of organic crumble. Crumble is a high
fat mixture that gets combined with other feed and scratch to help in
egg laying. They are almost finished with the initial 10lb of
medicated chick feed we came home with in early October. They are
getting so big!! Pics to follow this week.
