A Four vegetable planters: cucumbers, cantaloupes, peppers, and heirloom tomatoes.Why jealous? Okay I have the veggies growing - and looking great. But my own supply of eggs?
B The garage, a.k.a. “the Barn”: tool storage, rabbit feed, chicken feed, six rabbit hutches, a slaughter station, a refrigerator, and four egg-laying coops.
C The field, in four beds: 1 Tomatoes, beets, celery, yellow squash, purple eggplant, and a fig tree. 2 Collard greens, cucumbers, and callaloo. 3 Cabbage, Japanese eggplant, white eggplant, rhubarb, leeks, garlic, onions, fennel, rosemary, thyme, and mint. 4 Corn, broad beans, basil, bok choy, and parsley.
D The duck run: a duck coop, a duck pond, and two wayward rabbit hutches.
E The chicken run: a high-rise high-capacity chicken coop and a livestock holding pen (on the porch).
F The potato crop: a raised bed technically known as a “drill.”
My own "farm" is great. Been living on greens of all kinds with summer squash, carrots, beets and green beans tossed in. Pole beans, cukes and tomatoes will soon be ready. Pinto, black and cattle beans are looking good. Potatoes, kale, turnips, parsnips, rutabaga and a few different winter squash will bring up the rear (season wise).
