Guess everybody has gotten the same idea hubby and I have to save money on groceries. We've planted a few things here in our postage stamp yard, but I got the bright idea to go to my youngest son's place and plant a righteous garden!

Last Sunday, we all worked tilling a large piece of ground and adding rabbit, goat and steer manure to the plot and sorting out all the rocks that the dirt will yield where there used to be a river bed. There's a pile big enough to start a rock wall! That dirt BREEDS rocks!

Anyway, this Sunday we'll be planting yellow and white corn, multi-colored bell peppers, carrots, lettuce, green and regular onions, 3 kinds of tomatoes; Early Girl, Big Boys and Roma (for sun dried tomatoes), cantaloupe, watermelon, cauliflower, potatoes and they've already got quite a bit already growing like artichokes into their second year. I'm not sure what else they have.

We're also thinking of buying a calf and a pig to raise for meat. My son is great at killing them and dressing them out, as I saw when he did a goat about three weeks ago. We're still eating on that goat! They kept him in a pen and fed him grain and alfalfa so he didn't taste goaty at all. I like the taste of goat as long as it isn't pastured 100% of the time.

Next year we'll have goat milk again! My granddaughter now has two little does. I've already bought my dill seeds to have dill to make dill goat milk cheese! YUMMMMMMM!

Back to nature! YEEEAAAH!! Oh, for hubby and I it will be with the comforts of the city.

Good growing, ya'll!
