BABY PORCUPINE!
Have you ever seen a baby porcupine?
Me neither
Oh my God it was so cute! We’ve seen it a couple of times now. Amongst the bevy of wildlife and curiosities out at the Gus.
We always feel so lucky and wiccanly blessed to be able to live on and with this land and the creatures around us.
Oh!
And did I mention we’re having a plant sale or two this weekend?
Saturday and Sunday. Look at the picture for locations & times. One in town one a little out of town.

Tomatoes, peppers, hot peppers, squash, pumpkins, cucumbers, and tons more.

What’s pictured there is about 2/3 of what we are bringing. Lots of different interesting varieties. Some we have a lot of some we don’t. So first come first served. No holds. Sorry.

Oh, and there’s a picture of my socked feet in sandals. Yes I’ve hit that age.
I’m coming to grips with it. Don’t judge.

hope to see a whole bunch of you this weekend.
Let’s grow food together!

Ok!!
here is the current and updated as I can do it list of plants we will be bringing this weekend!
Saturday at Rose N Crantz Roasting Co. 10-1? 2?
Sunday at Kakabeka Farmers' Market 9-12
We pride ourselves on unique and interesting veggies. We’ve got a couple of standards, but we have a lot of slightly different off the wall ones.
We have a tomato called dancing with Smurfs!
Veggies with weird colors.
And fun names.
But all delicious!
We are not a huge scale operation so quantities will be limited. Some we have quite a few, some we only have a handful. So if you want any of the ones that are listed, come on down and grab them! They may not be around for long
On fb & insta. Follow along for updates.
