Wondering if any of you know about peach trees. Back in early November I purchased and planted 2 dwarf Redhaven peach trees. They are around 4' tall after planting. I realize it will probably take a couple of years at least for them to start producing fruit. My question is if I see flower buds...

Wow, a first time canner being investigated for possible murder is just crazy to me. Certainly hope my first experience at it doesn't go THAT awry or I'm in trouble.

Thank you the POW. I like taking photos and sharing them with friends. Upcoming pics may well be snow related as much as I hate to say it. LOL.

Probably a pretty good return on investment considering she was a co-founder of Cisco Systems and she raised cattle as a youngster to put herself through college. Sounds like she knows what she's doing obviously, good for her.

Those are some expensive Turkeys, wow! Those horses she raised looked nice as well. Maybe she'll get into raising some Wagyu cattle for Kobe beef - she seems pretty eccentric but she's got the funds to do it for sure.

Thanks for the suggestions everyone, ya'll are wonderful. When I look to purchase all of my supplies, I'd like to get American Made if I can. (no pun intended, but works) @Britesea - Thanks for the tip, I'll keep that in mind when purchasing. I have a gas stove that has the 4 burers &...

Found this lil' fella hanging out in the raised beds a couple weekends ago. Don't know if that's a good sign or not but it was kinda neat watching him hop around. Maybe he was helping me by eating some bugs?

@NH Homesteader - I too, am worried about making mistakes, no one likes to make them, however, I consider a mistake as something learned so it's a bit easier to digest and I try & not repeat it. At least that's my perspective on it. There's so many knowledgeable people here, thank you all for...

Hello everyone, hope you've all recouped from any over indulging you may have done over the last few days. I'm guilty of it and the seams of my britches have been screaming at me for it. I know nothing about canning, never done it, don't know the process, nada, zilch, zero - total novice on the...

Weather here has been cooling off the last week or so - lows have been in mid to low 30's with highs in mid 40's. We've had some morning frost a couple of days but it's burned of by mid morning. It was a nice run of warmer than average temperatures here so I can't really complain. Definitely not...

Thank you for the welcome, there sure is a lot of information here, I like that. Good luck in your endeavors.

@Mini Horses - thank you for the list making ideas, I needed that. Prioritize that list and refining & timelining are great suggestions, thank you. Oh - and I didn't really fire my four legged buddy, we did spend a lot of time tossing that tire around after that picture was taken. I sure wish I...

Hello fellow newbie. That's wonderful that you can take care of your mother, kudos to you for that. When the time does come for you all to pick up and move, and you want to live in a warmer climate, I would suggest Mississippi to you. I go there every year for a week long fishing trip and...

Good morning. @baymule - I saw the link to the easy garden site and of course had to join. That looks like a place I will visit often as well as here. Thank you for posting. @sumi - right now the only critters I have plans for are chickens. I live on the outskirts of the city so I have to...

My dog gave up helping pick up sticks and went and found his tire Grape vines that produced a good crop this year Compost bin exploding - Obviously have more leaves to mulch up

Thanks for the warm welcome everyone. My little stick fetcher helper decided he just wanted to carry his tire around today so I had to fire him.
