Massive Garlic & Onion Harvest

Wife harvested the garlic and onion beds this weekend, turns out we have a TON of garlic and onions as seen in the pictures below. We built a simple drying rack in the barn and am planning to dry much of it in the dehydrator.

Spring in Full Swing

This must be the height of Spring. Everything seems to be popping up and growing or hatching! The garden is really producing, more than we can eat. The fruit trees have a bunch of fruit and the guinea eggs finally hatched. We had a terrible hatch rate with the eggs, only 3 out of 24 but I’ve already identified a source of guinea keets to get another dozen or so from.

Wild Flower Bed

http://citydebate.com/2025/08/17/bu1q5qi1a Used the single bottom plow and disc harrow to build what will hopefully be a wild flower bed. Using the single bottom plow for such a narrow bed was much more difficult then I thought. Took many passes to get it turned over and then at least 25 passes with the disc harrow to break it down. Wish I had a tiller to really get it broken up, but I didn’t plan for that. In fact what I thought would take an hour at most took about 4 hours and the result looks kinda mediocre in my opinion. The true test will be to see whether the seeds sprout and survive. Planted echinacea, calendula, sun flowers, borage, and a few other flowering plants.
