-Mizuna

-Kale

Propigating Hops From Rhizomes

When we first started this garden blog a few years ago we got a female Chinook hop plant. It has since given us bitter and aromatic flowers every season that have been used in all the homebrews from the Spotty Dog. It is also spreading like crazy and it is time to divide it up a bit.

Baby Turkeys!

We got one Bourbon Red and a Broad Brested Bronze
