Baby Chicks



Our newest baby chicks have grown.  They are starting to get a bit of the outdoors.  They seem to be adjusting and soon we be put out with the other hens.

Wild Red Clover Jelly


While sitting outside the other night, looking out at the back of the property, I looked at all that wild growing red clover.

"I wonder if the pioneers made anything out of clover?" I asked the kids. 

Their response?  Laughter and head nodding.
