I live on 14.5 acres in Amish country in Ohio. I have raised chickens, turkeys, ducks, rabbits & sheep. I’ve planted cherries, hazelnuts, peaches, mulberries, paw paws, apples, pears & nectarines. I garden (badly) but I am learning more every year. I work remotely for a bank as a mortgage underwriter- fingers crossed I am still doing that when you read this.
I hunt on my land - have gotten 5 deer since I moved out here. Into everything homesteading.
Morning Nostriches!
Tractor is free so here is a garden report. Today’s pic is the healthiest looking eggplant I have ever grown. I am super excited about this guy. I see he (she?) has the first bud so I should get an eggplant in about 6 weeks (?)

No garden report this morning, hubs got the tractor stuck yesterday morning around the pond, we went down to assess the situation & we’re gonna have to hire a skid steer or something. Here’s some pond pics in the meantime.

Todays garden pic is the most exciting thing to happen in the garden in years! I had a modicum of success this year & hubs immediately broke out a new bed! Some assembly required

Todays garden report is some baby bush beans. I’ve done beans before, but only pole beans so this is new for me, but they’re looking real good so I have high hopes!

Todays garden report is the flowers between the beds. I have some marigolds, a sunflower & some pansies (I think). There’s nasturtiums in a few beds too, but not in this pic.

Todays garden pic is a future eggplant. These are the healthiest looking eggplant plants I’ve ever gown & this is the 1st flower that’s poking through. Love eggplant!
