An outdoor #poetryteatime before the #fullhuntersmoon 🌕

Craft fair this weekend! 🎃🍎

Our first #poetryteatime of the year! We revisited the passages in #charlottesweb where Avery and Fern grab donuts for breakfast, and Templeton learns of the incredible gluttony found at the fair - complete with our own donuts and popcorn. 🍩🍿We capped things off with all the spider and pig themed nursery rhymes we could find. 🐖

The first tree is ripe, so the rest aren’t far behind. Our 16 tree orchard is a mix of Golden Delicious, Red Delicious, Gala, and Macs, and a potential Cortland - at least those are John Bunker’s best guesses. We took a selection to MOFGA a few years back with the hope of IDing them.

Twenty Red Rangers, raised on pasture, 11 weeks from chick to butcher. Ten for a friend and ten for us - but we bartered one for honey and one for lumber to build the chicken tractor. I’m perplexed by the way their final weights varied - we’ve got several 8 pounders, and two that didn’t even break 5 pounds, despite having the same access to food and water.

She’s not fast or fancy. She doesn’t even have a name. But she’s ours, and we’re having so much fun getting to know her.
