Bubbles: the self appointed queen of the goat herd.

garden beds freshly planted
the finished garden bed
the ladies: sky, desmelda, bubbles
Anthony at work constructing the frames for raised beds

tools in hand, he's ready for anything!
tulips blooming in our yard
planting seedlings in the new bed




filling the new bed with radish seedlings, even though i don't really like radishes...
Hoorah for the man with 32 chainsaws and a commercial chipper who provided all this glorious mulch!

tulip splendor
radish seedling

the goats receiving nibbles

rototiller in hand
watering the raspberry canes
me and mustache about to do the water bucket tango
measuring the beds
