April 24th I found three chickens sitting in a row.
April 24th an attempt to take 12 cuttings of 3 different colored Azaleas.

April 24th I went wild raspberry/blackberry (will determine the variety when it is ripe) hunting and managed to plant around 46 containers, hoping for roots to take!


April 24th mix of cuttings from 4 in 1 apple, pear, cherry, and peach to more berry plants.

April 24th Aquaponics table. Pac choy and red russian kale are flowering and will us seed for next year! Thinking of taking out the dino kales in favor of a couple basil varieties.

April 24th added another blueberry to the orchard. One is doing great, another okay, and the third is barely hanging in. Much to learned about fruit bush maintenance and orchard care still.



April 25th the outer row in the spiral garden; spinach has done great this year even though only half of the seed germinated. The squash and zucchini sprouts are coming up as the spinach bolts. Two gifted squash are in the far end of the row, thriving!
April 25th the next row in the spiral, on the outside edge still, is our three sisters mound. The Cherokee Corn is coming up inch by inch, waiting for the Cherokee Pole Beans to be planted as the corn reachs 6 inches tall.
April 25th view of the peas reach up the trellis finally and a dino kale flowering out, hoping to get plenty of good seed for fall!


April 25th view of the last outside touching row in the spiral, planted with Royal Burgundy Bush Beans, with a winter savory on the corner closest to the view.
April 25th view of the next row, first inside the spiral, which is planted with Provider Bush Beans. A thriving oregano is at the of the row, started from seed last year!
April 25th view of the newly started rosemary corner preceding a row of red russian, dino, and redbor kale. The corner of the following row and the row itself is rainbow chard, just starting to get of harvestable size.



April 25th view of the center bed inside the spiral garden's center. Catnips are thriving, Turkish Oregano is coming back strong, while the Sage recovered from winter, and cilantro flowers for next year's seed stock. Dill has been seeded and transplanted to come up over the next few weeks as the cilantro finishes.





April 25th view of the cucumbers with carrot seeded infront of them and onions on the edge. Volunteer cilantro, basil, and cherry tomato are in the right 1/4 of the bed.
April 25th view of the peppers, tomatoes, beets, and lettuce.
April 25h view of the center raised bed, the strawberries are thriving and two new transplants, tristan variety, pink blooms, are enjoying the space too.
April 25th right half of the center bed, bunching onions blooming this 2nd year, while four tomato start to root.
