		<description><![CDATA[Well we had some extremely hot days mixed with cool nights and the onions bolted. This being the first year we&#8217;ve grown them I really wasnt sure what to expect but knew this was a bad sign. I pulled the rest of the onions up and was disappointed to say the least to see that they had [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The cucumber harvest has been plentiful&#8230;and relentless. Perfect!  They were planted with the intention of making some homemade pickles before the end of summer. These beauties are a pickling variety purchased from John Scheepers. I got the idea of this recipe from Balls Complete Book of Home Preserving. If you&#8217;re considering canning this book is fantastic. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[Renting a tractor is no cheap cost and maxing out the usage during the rental time requires multiple rentals, and a lot of money out of pocket! So we&#8217;ve started looking at purchasing a Kubota Tractor&#8230; we are checking tractor auctions, craigslist, ebay, new, and more! Where we live renting a 35HP New Holland tractor w/backhoe runs [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve had an interest in making butter for a short while now. The topic came up in conversation and I made a mental note that I should look into it and that was the end of it. We aren&#8217;t big on butter as a condiment in this household (except of course slathered on fresh steamed [...]]]></description>

A very simple design as I&#8217;m still getting back into the &#8220;groove&#8221; of crocheting.  Also, I think its a good multi season blanket. The holes in the pattern will allow [...]]]></description>

They seem to sprout up over night and this time I thought I&#8217;d share. This was a little larger than usual. We usually pinch them off before they really have a chance to leaf out.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This spring we had 3 nests on corners of the house and 1 in a tree at eye level 10 feet from our back deck. I watched patiently day after day but I either all together missed the little babies or the nests were situated so the contents weren&#8217;t visible. Many afternoons were spent watching [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[I&#8217;ve looked high and low for a trellis that was priced right and didn&#8217;t find one. In my opinion if I&#8217;m going to buy something already made it a) better be the right price or b) be too difficult/time consuming to make myself. Even last season&#8217;s wooden trellises at the garden stores which have weathered [...]]]></description>

Last year we spent months caring for our garden before we were able to eat any of it because everything was late. Now, peas are producing steadily and just for [...]]]></description>
