Work, work, and...did I mention work?

Yes, life on the farm has been busy the last few weeks. And today we are expecting some bad weather from hurricane Irene, hopefully she will be nice to us!
Not too much has really changed on the farm. Gardens still need to be weeded, plants need to be planted, seeds need to be seeded, animals need to be fed, etc. Though (and I just remembered this) we have some new chicks. They are quite cute, they live in one of the horse stalls in the same barn that Epona and Roscoe occupy.
The CSA is more than half over, it seems like it just started (but I feel that way about summer too, like it's almost September; aghh!)
But we have a nice diverse selection of food coming out of the gardens, including:
tomatoes
onions (red and yellow)
garlic
swiss chard
kale
lettuce
green peppers
eggplants
zucchini
early cabbage
pickling cukes
cucumbers
carrots
beets
beans
peas (sugar and shelling)
basil
peppermint, and
thyme
