Oh boy! We have 2 acres. The farm behind us sold and now wanted to have 25 lots for sale. Our neighborhood fought them and settled for bigger lots. In the mean time they started a road behind our property. My neighbor stopped to tell us they were 12 feet on our land. We called the authorities...
Young kale leaves get sauteed in my eggs in the morning or put in salads. Kale chips are good. I dehydrate a lot of it and add it to all soups, meatloaves,pasta dishes and many more dishes. It is so good for you. The large buggy leaves go to the chickens. :drool
