It sure did feel like spring this weekend! The weather was absolutely gorgeous, bringing us out of the house and into the garden. We did a bunch of clearing of last years growth (should have been done in the fall ~ oh well), admiring all of the greens that are popping up (chickweed, henbit, comfrey, violet, liferoot, mint), and planting potatoes. David and Alex also spent one day improving the old chicken house. We passed our old laying flock onto another farm and will welcome 15ish new hens this week. With an empty house, we took the opportunity to gussy up the place ~ new laying boxes, new floor (hello, linoleum), and (finally!) exterior siding. It looks great and is ready for some new lovely laying hens !
