More Pictures!

One of our chickens that hangs out in the barns went broody. Curious to see what would happen, we let her sit on her eggs. Tada! Chicks! 

Blossoms in the orchard.

Duck pond.

Hello chicky!

Sunset. Sadly we often see sunrise as well.

Lots of pictures for my mum...

Some of these are rather slanted...there was a terrible glare on the screen and I couldn't see what I was taking pictures of!


Howe Farm at sunset.


Cows hanging out in the sun and my trusty companion...


Our orchard which is coming into bloom...


Hopefully all these apple blossoms mean will get some apples this year!


Our newly dug pond. Sadly one of our ducks is missing. Have no idea where she went...


Our little piglets, growing up so fast!


Inside the poly tunnel. Pretty soon tomatoes cucumbers eggplant and all sorts of veg will join the lettuce...


Our outside garden where it isn't so hot. Garlic and onions in front and beans, strawberries, gooseberries and brussel sprouts in the back...


This doesn't look like anything right now but I have just planted 8 rows of potatoes and 4 rows of corn. Will also plant some pumpkins and courgettes...


See, corn!


Our new pig field. This is where we will put all of our pigs for fattening. Lots and lots of electric fencing!
