Well, I am a member of BYC, and since the site is down for upgrade, it suggested this site as well as a few others. So here I am. My name is Nova. I have just over an acre of land, with too many trees and not enough sun. I do container gardening in the area that has sunlight since that area is also my drain field. Last year, well 2010, was my first time ever growing my own veggies and fruit. I started small, just tomatoes, carrots, radishes, strawberries, beans and watermelons. This past year, I added a new kind of bean, cucumbers, green peppers, cantaloupe. This year I plan to add zucchini, yellow squash broccoli and cauliflower, and some lettuces.
I have chickens. This is my first year with them. Its been fun time with them. I love them! I also have 4 free-loading ducks. Lol. They re not on light supplement, so maybe that's why they are free loaders. I also have a hen who has gone broody and is sitting on 7 eggs. It will be her first and mine as well. There is an egg under her from every hen I have.
I have 2 children, 6 and 3. I also have 2 dogs. Ankle biter size. Lol. My disabled mother lives with me also. My father used too as well, but he went to the mashed potatoes and roast buffet in the sky last year, 2010.
I am looking forward to meeting people and learning new things that will enrich my life.
