    Update and Shenanigans on the Homestead this week.

    Update and Shenanigans on the Homestead Here is the next Update and Shenanigans on the Homestead. This time I finally finished the last of the seeds I had on hand.

I know the first photo is coneflowers.. I do not recall…

Could you imagine all the apples we are going to get?? One of the other apple trees bloomed last week. The plum was right there with it. I can say with all the flowers that it had, the poor thing will be snapped if…
