The Aschermann Farm is still a work in progress. The chickens are not laying eggs yet, but should be soon. We did discover that we have two roosters instead of the requested one. This can be a problem depending on how aggressive the roosters are. So far ours seem to be fairly mellow and therefore we may be able to keep both. We currently have three gardens; the berry garden, the pumpkin patch and the regular garden. The berry garden is fairly sad. We didn't get the plants in until late in the season and the heat has been hard on them. I am hoping the plants will start to look better after our week of the forecasted rains. If it does I will post some pictures of it as well. On the other hand our pumpkin patch which includes an assortment of squash is thriving. It could use some thinning, but I am a little afraid of what might be living in that jungle. Our regular garden is doing very well considering we planted most of the items from seeds we purchased last year. We have been having a lot of fun watching our property come to life.

Milo in front of the Pumpkin Patch
We could loose him in there.
I love Milo's stance in this picture
Our garden looked much greener prior to weeding. What is left....tomatoes, potatoes, cucumbers, onions, garlic, carrots, beens, peas, zucchini and corn.
My two farmer boys. For a moment I thought Milo was getting very tall, but I just noticed he is standing on the shovel.
