I’ve embraced hydroponics. Just a few weeks into this rabbit hole. This opens up so many doors and removes so many issues and barriers I’ve have with traditional gardening. I’m keeping my raised beds for root crops.

Not a #chickpic of the day. I made outside access to the nesting boxes in my spare time. So handy! ….now if I can just train that last hen to use them. She still hides on the floor in the back corner. 🤦‍♂️

#chickpic of the day Smallest chicken egg I’ve ever seen. Must be a first egg. These hens hatched in March so they’re still young.

FREEEEEDOOM!!!! They are five months old. I let them out for the first time yesterday late afternoon. They had a couple of hours to forage and went back to the coop as the sun set. Today, I let them out an hour earlier. #chickpic of the day #chickens #gardening #tsp #grownostr #homesteading
