I've still only planted half the garden. I am hoping to find the inspiration to get the rest of the back garden planted this week.

My tall raised bed is currently hosting spinach and red onion.

One of the brussels sprouts plants that I am currently pinning all my hopes on (they are my very favorite veggie!)

I planted twice as much broccoli this year as we went through it very quickly last year.

The garlic came up much more quickly than last year and I planted it earlier in the season as well.

A flower from the trumpet vine that covers the top of the chicken run.

Just for fun, some gratuitous chicken pictures!
This Delaware is the only adult hen I have who has finished molting for the year. She still isn't laying again though. I am getting exactly zero eggs a day right now. I hope they are resting up and will start again soon!

My other Delaware that is finishing with her molt and looks mostly normal:

One of the young pullets I got a month or so ago (this one is an Ancona).

The young girls hanging out on the roosting bar in the run with my Rhode Island Red who currently has a lot of bare patches from her molt.

Next post will be on trying to figure out how to winnow chaff from sunflower seeds.

We've had snow on the ground nearly all month here in WV (unusual for us, actually). So I will have to live vicariously through your garden pics, LOL. All I can do for now is thumb through plant catalogs and dream of warmer days to come...sigh. ;)
