A Little Farm in Boring, Oregon.

#Gardening Question! I'm trying to make a culinary garden that's as Mediterranean/Middle Eastern as possible (not far from Portland) and I'm really sad I can't find Sicilian Sumac in the US. Sites are saying Smooth or Staghorn Sumac taste very similar but I'm dubious. Anyone know? 1/4

Hello everyone! I'm a disabled artist/hiker/gardener/animal rescuer/conservationist who vibes best with LGD and birbs. So we got a farm (that's mostly a forest we want to preserve) and are slowly building gardens and orchards in the already developed bits with the goal to donate what we don't eat ❤️

She's in the middle of a lush green forest. There's a tall wire fence that's barely visible because the forest continues in such a vast manner on either side of it.

The 2 new rescue dogs we brought into our lives earlier this year (from Texas and Idaho) seem to finally really feel at home and now calmly enjoy watching over the yard together (in between their bouts of zoomies) They leave the geese and ducks alone but chickens would be too much of an ask.

2 white dogs sit on the top of a sunny, dry, grassy hill with trees and a chicken enclosure behind them.

I've been getting 2-4 hours of sleep a night. This sucks. I can fall asleep but will wake up in 3 hours. Everything is fine and I do everything right but the sleep switch just wont flip again. I think its the Addisons. I said screw it and took a half dose of hydrocortisone at 3am and got closer

I let a lot of stuff re-seed on its own, grow where it once lay, so it's a little unkempt looking BUT, despite all my seed tray failures, I finally have a lot of food about to come in and I'm getting so many flower seeds this year!

4 baby bantams have hatched out & 4 more are currently cracking through their shells. Omg they're so cute 3 eggs clearly weren't fertilized, & they could all be Waffle's x Larkspurs (my old chicken group, she laid 3 eggs) but I hope at least one is. The rest are all Peanut's, my tiny bantam rooster

2 babies hatched tonight! A little silver and a little gold 💖 The only other time I've tried to use an incubator was on some goose and duck eggs that didn't happen to be fertilized so I'm so happy to have a successful chicken hatch!
