The first small livestock sale was made at Mon Abri Farm this week. On Tuesday a father and his two children came out to buy a New Zealand rabbit. I sold him one of our ready-to-breed females, and he and his kids really enjoyed watching the goat being milked while they were there as well. Later that night, one of our horse-trainer friends stopped by to pick up a horse we had been training to correct bad behavior, and in its place a young, barely broke 2 year old filly was left behind for us to finish up her training, before she is sent off to the racetrack for her new career as a racehorse.
June has arrived and the garden is starting to produce. Radishes are coming in this week. Really good, spicy-hot radishes. I absolutely have to eat some every morning before I head out for the day's activities. I'll be giving this recipe I found at Food52 a go around this evening. Looking very forward to it, though I don't have any turnips on hand, so I will omit those and deal with it!
The potato and tomato plants are looking vibrant and healthy as well.
Pastures are lush again, animals are happy. At least until "fly season" starts up again...
I hope you all have a lovely Wednesday. ~A
