  • Chokecherry Prep

    We are firing up the canners for the year in the Big OHH kitchen and getting ready for August 1st, this will be our first market stand for the year since most of our products come in the fall. We will either be at the Great chokecherry festival or at least at the morning farmers…

  • Animal Rehabilitation

    I am sure most of you have read my most recent posts on facebook and the post about the new adventure that Hubby brought home for me to take care of. Happy to report that we are seeing positive results and more on that is gonna come later. We have decided that we are going…

  • “Wild” Event

    We are rolling right on by our first full week with the new arrivals. We were given some small orphaned ducklings that were found in a very unsafe spot where the momma duck had been hit by a vehicle and did not make it. Since these people knew we already have our own pet duckies…

  • Design a raised-bed garden

    Like I said last week, Planning a garden is not easy, it does take a good amount of work since there are so many details involved. Growing a garden for a family of 7 plus pets takes a lot more planning than it would for a family of 2 or 3. With what we have…

    In life so far I have learned that it is better to start your planning early so you can calculate the messes and the hiccups that inevitably come with every single thing you try to do. Planning a garden for a family of roughly 7 or 8 give or take if we have visitors or…
