Description
This weeks updates are finally more than just worrying about the weather. We got a springtime break and took to the outdoors! The asparagus patch got a cleanout of last years fronds. The chicken coop got a bit of a cleaning too. There was fence mending and happy pigs as well.
Then in the Veggie Patch we discuss the seeds we have started for this years vegetable garden and why we liked them. We also talk a bit about some challenges with a soil block recipe change this year - a bit unexpected.
Then we have some Close Encounters with Free Ranging Farmers on the Front Porch as we discuss a recent quote from the Shark Tanks's Mark Cuban... and how it's about YOUR farm too! http://www.businessinsider.com/mark-cuban-nfl-tv-2014-3
