Good morning all y’all! Busy this morning trying to catch things up so I can head over to dad’s for his recliner delivery. Garden needs weedeating but will have to wait. #holsteinhouse #food #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

Good morning all y’all! Busy day today. After morning chores off to pay license renewal fees, then to hospital to visit a friend in poor shape, and struggling after a five bypass heart surgery. Storms possible later but warmer. #holsteinhouse #prayer #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

Good morning all y’all! It is cold out this morning! Right now it’s 49°F/9.4°C on the Holstein House front porch, in my part of Kanawha County, West Virginia, USA! Taking and unloading half a pickup of soil to Jericho House today for their container garden. Then home to set up more containers here. #holsteinhouse #food #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

Good morning all y’all! Went to Greens Feed and Seed early. Picked up a “scoop” of top soil. Splitting it with Jericho House in St Albans for their container garden. Got my half out. I am pooped! #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #grownostr #nostr #homesteading #containergarden #garden

Old hens still got it! Occasionally. When you first get your hens once they begin laying they will do so just about every day their first year. Then they start slowly down. It’s very normal. My old girls lay about every two ir three days. My olive-egger lays less than that. Her beautiful green eggs are a happy break from all the brown. Today seven of my eight girls earned their keep. #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv #hens #eggs #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr #foodstr

Neglected my #gm in the post about carrots! Good morning all y’all!

Carrot top leaves can be used like parsley. Here I planted about one inch of the top of an organic carrot, keep some green stems or leaves attached, in soil to let the top grow. Letting this one bloom to see if I can get seeds. #IndoorGardening #StartingSeeds #VegetableGarden #ContainerGardening #PeppersAndTomatoes #TomatoSeason #KaleLove #LettuceVarieties #SweetPeppers #GreenhouseGardening #GardenJourney #JimmyNardelloPeppers #ItalianCooking #SeedStarting #SpringGardening #GardeningFrustrations #GardenerLife #UrbanGardening #GreenThumb #LastFrostDate #PeppersAreSlow #BackPorchGarden #GrowingGreens #PlantingSeason #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr #foodstr

The peppers you see here is a Jimmy Nardello variety. It will produce a large plant with beautiful elf shoe looking fruit. They are great for Italian dishes. The last frost date for me is still a month away. I have a small greenhouse on the back porch and I am so excited for the minute I can plant my container garden. What vegetables are you growing this year? #IndoorGardening #StartingSeeds #VegetableGarden #ContainerGardening #PeppersAndTomatoes #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr #foodstr

Clearing the dead nettle from the front plant bed. Look what I saw. #holsteinhouse #food #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr #foodstr

Today I managed to decant some vanilla extract I started last year, start some vanilla sugar, and lemon extract. I also made two loves of wheat bread. #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #food #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr #foodstr
