I just got all our raised beds ready for spring.

We try trying to buy a foreclosure about 20 mins away. 2.3 acres with barn and stables and tons of room for planting. I doubt I could get the land ready for this summer, maybe a fall crop....if we get the house

Waiting to get my truck back from the mechanic, then hopefully I can get started on my raised beds and chicken coop. Also got in touch with the guy who is going to be my mentor this year for beekeeping. Hopefully I can learn enough from him this year to start my own hives next spring.

yep, waiting on the back field to dry out some so I can get a gravel pad built to build on. I am trying to source enough pallets right now for a pallet barn
