11 days of growth #garden #gardening #vegetablegarden #vegetablegardening #farmlife #growyourown
A sign on the bus. This is hilarious to me because I guarantee that nobody younger than 40 is going to know what a boom box is.
Shady has discovered his reflection 😆 #chicken #chickens #chickensofbluesky #chickensky #farmlife
It's my own fault for leaving the door open 🙄 #chicken #chickens #chickensofbluesky #chickensky
My roommate just sent me a picture of my fish tank. It is really starting to bounce back. Still waiting for the foliage to grow more, but it is looking very clear and healthy in there. #fishtank #aquarium #plantedtank

There's something so cozy about sitting in the RV during a rain storm. Makes me want to pull out a book.
I hate how foggy the water is still 🙁. But, ammonia, nitrates and nitrites are all still testing at 0, so I think it is just a bacteria bloom from disturbing the substrate when I put the plants in. Hopefully it'll clear up soon. #aquarium #fishtank #plantedtank
Part 1/2 I picked up a couple of plants on the way home from the farm. The tank water is a bit cloudy due to me planting them and stirring up debris, but the tank water has been clear, infection free, and odour free for at least a month now. The next step is #aquarium #fishtank #plantedtank
A friend from a neighbouring garden brought me a head of broccoli. Chopped it up, added some feta and voila! Dinner! #gardening #vegetablegardening #foodie #cooking #growyourown 🍽
I harvested some garden spinach and used some farm eggs to make a quiche/frittata. It was delicious #gardening #vegetablegarden #farmlife #growyourown #foodie #cooking 🍽
I HAVE DEFEATED YOU #garden #gardening #vegetablegarden #vegetablegardening #growyourown #farmlife
Melon patch weeded. Close to finishing. I still have to fill the potato bags, weed whack the grass around the perimeter, and take a hoe one last time to the garden to get all the little guys that came up. Perhaps jobs for tomorrow 🙃 #garden #gardening #vegetablegarden #growyourown #farmlife
Alliums, cucumbers and leafy greens weeded. I had some space by the garlic so I planted my alpine strawberries there. #garden #gardening #vegetablegarden #vegetablegardening #growyourown #farmlife
I'm taking another crack at it. Spinach, carrots and cruciferous vegetables weeded. #garden #gardening #vegetablegarden #vegetablegardening #growyourown #farmlife
It's a hard, hard life. Poor Tavish. CHICKEN. #cat #cats #catsofbluesky #catsky
Amy, the cat I babysit every winter, has decided to change careers and become a travel navigator. Sent to me by her people 😀 #cat #cats #catsofbluesky #catsky
I have uncovered the peas. Time to stop for now I think. #garden #gardening #farmlife #growyourown #vegetablegarden
Between cool weather and a busy schedule, I was really delayed getting my hot weather plants in, but I FINALLY planted my tomatoes, peppers and basil. I'm going to work until the shade disappears, and I'll finish weeding this evening. #garden #gardening #vegetablegarden #growyourown #farmlife
Strawberry patch before and after. There will definitely be another little harvest today! #garden #gardening #vegetablegarden #vegetablegardening #growyourown #farmlife
Weeded the three sisters patch and planted my squash and pumpkins. I also weeded the green beans and snap peas. Some before and after pics 😀 #garden #gardening #vegetablegarden #vegetablegardening #growyourown #farmlife
My first batch of strawberries. I'm sure many more are on their way. And yes, they are delicious 😀 #farmlife #gardening #garden #vegetablegardening #growyourown #foodie
I didn't think it was possible for me to laugh about a joke made about the Epstein files, but here we are.
It's looking very green out there. Please overlook the shopping cart someone threw in the water 🙄 #landscape #nature #photography
Well, there was no java moss in stock but I picked up an anubias plant. In a couple of weeks I'll probably pick up something else and just keep adding. #fishtank #aquarium #plantedtank
