Of course it wasn't a competition it's just that Dawn is the only one so far who is brave enough to try my beautiful,luxurious sweet smelling soap. The offer still stands folks.
Today, sadly a member of the chooken club departed us. One little brown chook had been sad and totally on it's own for a few days. It progressively got worse until no more. As we are very inexperienced poultry handlers we have no idea what was wrong. The rest of the club are looking strong and healthy and its about time they started laying.
Elliott constructing the guinea pig house. Apparently we are getting guinea pigs-tomorrow,he tells me. Elliott has a breeding program in mind! We'll be off to the Candelo markets early tomorrow to source guinea pigs for the newly built hutch.
Luckily Grahame was able to make it out of supplies we already had. It's cost a grand total of $3,
that I like!!
More berries waiting to be planted
It's so exciting to see my seeds coming to life. I have about 40 pots of all kinds of seeds. Most of them are sprouting. Although the Borage didn't survive the demolishing of the green house by the chooks. Never mind I have plenty more seed. I need to make beds for these new seeds hopefully I can start that tomorrow.
The vegies are looking good after the recent rain. And before you ask, no that is not weeds growing around the beds. Thats the green manure(crop) we planted prior to making the veggie beds. It adds nutrients to the soil.

Yippee for me! I could always pick them up in September when I'm in Merimbula!
