The end of the year

Not much is going on this time of year at my 1 acre farm.  The chickens are still laying of course, though they have slowed down a bit.  But not much.  I have several good winter layers that will keep me and my friends in eggs throughout the cold winter months.

My final harvest of the year were the sweet potatoes.  They kind of went wild and wasn't sure I'd get much since cherry tomato plants kept cropping up in the 2 sq. ft planting is set aside for the sweet potatoes.  But was I surprised.  Over 25lbs of potatoes and one that was 3lbs 11oz.  In plenty of time for Thanksgiving.


Looking forward to spring and planting season.
