| Starting
to transplant the first round of tomatoes; we are selling 21 varieties
of tomatoes this year. I hope my customers like some of the new
ones such as green zebra, cherokee purple and japanese trifle.

We have lived out on our farm for 15 years and I have had at least 5 riding lawn mowers, all used and I got tired of always trying to fix them. This is my new toy. Zero-turn, 52" mowing deck, 26 hp, and will do 8 miles per hour. WooHoo! |

| This week I finished the first round of tomatoes and will start the second round of seedlings this week end. Next weekend May 1st. back to the market. |

It's all in the tag. I was inspected this week by the Royalty Administration International (RAI) to see if my plants have this tag. When I purchase Proven Winners as little baby plugs I pay a royalty and sign an agreement to not propagate these plants. This tag proves that. If you are caught propagating them it is a $2.00 fine for each plant without a tag. You then must destroy all plants before the inspector leaves. Mine all have tags...... |

My
husband wanted a bigger tractor, so he traded in our old 8N Ford
Tractor for this beauty a Ford 2910. It has 40HP and will be a much
safer tractor to operate. She is real pretty. |

For
the first time in 16 years I did not go to the market the day before
Mother's Day which is one of my largest sales day. We had 45 mph
wind gusts with 36 degree wind chill and rain. My hanging baskets
would have been torn up and customers don't like to shop in such
nasty weather. |

We don't always work our butts off. My husband decided I needed a toy. This is a 1971 Honda 90cc in mint condition...it has no clutch. |

| We are having a new barn built. It is 24 x 32 and has large sliding doors on each end. This will make it easy to store our tractors and equipment. Our other barn is way to full. |  |

This will be the last week for a good selection of veggie plants. I am running out of things such as cukes, sweet peppers. Next week we will reduce prices. |

This
week we put out our haywagon loaded with all the leftover veggie
plants. I find it easier to give them away than to dump them. They
all just disappear and it brings me good karma with my friends and
neighbors. Within 2 days I got rid of everything! |

This is one of the many trees we lost in our woods due to severe storms that passed through our area last Friday night. We lost our power for 5 days. My poor husband spent most of the time switching appliances and well to the generator. |

This week our barn was finished. It is beautiful, but now my husband does not want to store stuff in there cause it is too pretty. Yes, it has its own address. |
