Last fall I tossed out some microgreen seeds that were getting pretty old. A few weeks ago, I noticed some plants that I didn't recognize had come up near the porch and seemed to be thriving. After a closer look and some internet research, I discovered that I now had... Continue reading

When wild turkeys started showing up in my yard last spring, it was difficult to get any photos. If they saw my slightest movement inside the house they would usually make a hasty exit. With time, they began to tolerate my presence, and I would see them stretching their wings,... Continue reading
