This is my successes and failures back to the simple life. We are in the process of making our 2 1/2 acre property into a mini farm. We are looking for a self sufficent life, well getting as close as possible to it. I wanted to share what we gave up and what we have gained from this journey. "He who works his land will have abundant food, but the one who chases fantasies will have his fill of poverty" Proverbs 28:19 ♥

Strawberries are dwindling.
Looks like the strawberry harvest is coming to a close....only got 1 today and doesn't look like any more are really growing. I don't see any more flowers either. Pea pods are going really slow right now as well. Cabbage is starting to get the roll leaves and are about to start forming a ball! Potatoes started to flow, blueberries are starting to get a slight blue hue and some pumpkins have flowered. My wild tomatoes have started to flower as well. In about 2 weeks I will have to start planting the fall seedlings. Ones that have the longest till harvest first of course. I will be talking to Mr. Smith about that this week. I am thinking there is room for one more wave of corn.... might just do it. The last wave I did I just started to see little sproutlets! They are all gorgeous :)
