More sleet, but at least the fog blew away and you can see the rest of the world again.

Evening view over a meadow. The sky is covered with thick rainclouds and darker towards the horizon. A distant neighbouring farmstead, some forest and part of a village are visible. A few branches, bereft of leaves introde from the left.


our new apiary is underway. we started with a open piece of pasture and have gotten here in about 2 weekends. took about 6,000 lbs of shale shoveled by hand. all that's left to do now is string the electric wire (bear country), hook up the solar setup, and transport our hives from our current apiary.

this site has a very slight slope so at west end of the yard we've created a large raised bed from the soil and sod we had to excavate from the site. this bed will act as a sponge, absorbing any water runoff and will provide moisture to whatever we end up planting there (most likely a native wildflower mix.)

#introduction
My husband and I (and our dog, of course) make our agrarian adventures in the Appalachian mountains where we raise honey bees, coturnix quail, vegetables and fruits, microgreens, and more. We have a lovely rescue rabbit we adore, named Siegfried, who keeps us well-stocked with some of nature's best fertilizer.

Formerly Tickfoot on another server I took a long (and refreshing) social media hiatus and am excited to meet like-minded folks on here again.
