Had to take advantage of the sunny day we had while we get them. The weather has been so unpredictable with showers and cold winds and frosty mornings. Not a great way to start our May.So off to the garden centre to buy our vegetables and herbs for our shared garden.
Nana and Papa have thoughtfully shared their garden space with us to grow our own veggies. This year we have decided on red & green peppers, zuc
chini, chi
nese cabbage, green cabbage, french green beans, carrots, cilantro & thai basil. All veggies and greens that we use in our everyday cooking.
We are really trying to 'keep it local' so that we know
what's going into our meals and our bodies. And teaching Jackson where our food comes from and how it gets to our plates.
In doing so, we have really been enjoying our farm grown/fed piggies from
the Schafer f
arm right here in Smalliver. It has been amazing knowing that our meat is so fresh and what went
into it. We have plans for locally produced beef in the next few weeks as well. Just have to find a supplier of farm fresh eggs that don't cost too much. Or start building that chicken coop of our own.
