Spring Happenings on the Homestead

Sweet-Pea one of
our newest additions.
Clearing and cleaning the raised bed area.
It was a tough winter but we made it through. Spring comes forth with new life, warmth and beauty, but it also brings forth many projects! The homestead is in full swing with kids, repairs, clean up and garden work.
Rob gets busy fixing
the fences that the snow
and goats damaged.
 























It is a whole family affair. It is a lot of work but many hands makes it feel light. We all feel a sense of accomplishment and pride at the end of  the day.
Kolbe helps dad.
We also added fencing
to give us some more garden
area.

The goats watch us work on
the other side!
Donovan got busy making some
more raised beds.



He did a great job.

 Plants are sprouting everywhere!


Rhubarb

Garlic







Charlotte and Kolbe
clean the area and
discuss what is to be done.
The human kids thought it would be a good idea to clean up an old fire pit in the new garden area. They decided to make it into a grotto with a rock flower garden.
The girls working
hard on their project.
A job well done!
It looks beautiful.
