Larsen Poultry Ranch - homesteading journey

[Larsen Poultry Ranch]

I don't think I'm checking the garden often enough... found these today. Broke my scissors trying to cut the zucchini. Not sure if the pumpkins were done, but they hadn't increased in size at all recently so I took them off. There's more still growing on the vines.

A trip to ER with a child is always traumatic. I’m glad it wasn’t worse. Giving up his binky didn’t make it any better but at least it wasn’t terrible for him.

That’s a pretty good harvest you got, for not expecting one.

Cold turkey on the binky! ~Maybe the owie makes it easier?? Besides being wet it would probably hurt as well.
Ah - zucchini the sneak up on you monster of the garden!! Nice harvest. LOL -- the monster zucchini here are requests of the sheep - they LOVE them.

We are probably going to have to try that. I managed to give almost all of them to friends or friends of friends. I think there's a lot of baking going to happen.

It rained last night. Weather is starting to get colder finally, should help with the electricity bill.

Kid 1 is 4 today. Time is flying by.

Another thing you can do is can them. There are recipes for zucchini relish and even a sneaky marmalade. Ball recipes so they are tested and trusted recipes.

You can make zucchini candy!
