Stunted

 We have beautiful cucumbers, cherry tomatoes, basil, dill, kale, beans and sweet peas on the stand today...and then we have some of the more 'unique' produce in the house for us to eat. 

The smallest ripe cantaloupe I've ever seen:




 Cucumber - still tasted good!


Teen egg next to a normal egg. This is from one of our landlords' hens - they're almost 5 months old.


Giant aquaponics tomato.


We had some repeat visitors this weekend so we must be doing something right! On Saturday we went tubing down a very lazy and relaxing river where they had recycling containers floating right in the river for any drink bottles. So environmentally aware! We also made pickles and pesto, picked pounds of raspberries and prepared a giant feast. 

Homemade rosemary french bread


Delicious beef roast for dinner - Nathan bought grass-fed beef through his work. 


We finally have enough mint to make mojitos - raspberry mint mojitos are dangerously good.


We found some eye spray and hoof spray for the lambs so we started treating them last night. The eye spray is purple and the hoof spray is blue...it's a good thing they're behind the property where people driving by can't see them. I'll take some photos...
