Other than that, farming's great.

Oh, there was also that time I crushed my finger in a pea sheller when I was about 7. And the time I got left behind on the combine and had to walk miles back to the farmhouse when I was about 8. My uncle got his finger bitten off by a pig, so I should count myself lucky.
Now you’re telling me!

I’m working on getting some chickens for eggs! Free range n all. I figure if the eggs fail I ll cook the meat, used the bones for broth, n bury the rest to fertilise the soil. I’ve never tried the fish head at the base of your plants before but saw a positive review with tomatoes
