EAT GREEN DFW


We had special guests here at the farm today.... Allison, Mike and their daughter Sarah with eatgreendfw!
After taking a stroll through the plum blossoms we made our way to the garden. Sarah loved picking the tiny purple wildflowers!
April 11 they will be bringing their group of about 20 to visit the farm.

The Smell of Spring






The Chickasaw, Mexican and Red plums are in bloom. The fragrance is truly intoxicating! Ummm... I love the Smell of Spring at Eden Creek Farm! Today the wind gusts got up to 43 miles per hour...That should help dry out the fields!



I can taste the plum wine now.....

Got Horse Milk!


Our mare's milk came in over 5 weeks ago...today she finally has waxed...this means Sally Sue should have her foal within twenty-four to forty-eight hours. Yeeeeeeeeeee-Haw!


Sally Sue and Kristine getting the stall ready for our new arrival.



Warmer weather for planting


Been busy transplanting the seedlings of Kohlrabi, Sweet Peas, Head Lettuce, Romaine Lettuce, Collards, Kale , Cabbage and Brussels Sprouts...

The onions are starting to grow...the ground is starting to dry out just in time to get hit by another big storm.

















The first peach tree started to bloom this week and the bees have already found it!








Butter Fingers (our rooster) is anxious for his new...thirty girlfriends to grow up!
