My winter garden

February 5, 2024plantssusanmanzke

I love having green plants growing in winter. Here are my two aqua gardens.

I love being able to pick a lettuce leaf to eat. More will be growing larger soon.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

A quiet frosty morning

Frost and fog decorated the land this morning.

It was a sweet time to just breathe and experience the quiet.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

My quiet pets

In the fish tank you’ll see one frog, one snail, and two fish.

This is a collection of quiet pets. They are good company and don’t take up much space.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.

Cats at play worries the dog

My critters are always interrupting my work, but they are fun to watch.

Barn-E was batting his little brother, Spitz. This concerned my dog, Stella. Car-E sat peacefully in the background.

Housecats and houseplants

So far, the cats have not hurt my orchids or other plants. Mostly, the cats want to look out the window.

I can’t say the same for my aquaponic plants. To keep those tiny shoots safe, I have plastic covering the tiny bits of growing green. I hope that after the lettuce gets bigger the cats will leave them alone. If not, I’ll have to set up a fence, just like an outside garden is used to keep the rabbits out.

Until next time, that’s all there is from Sunnybook Farm.
