Good morning all y'all! Dry this morning, high about 78⁰]. Possibly storms later. Grass is over my short boots. #grownostr #garden #holsteinhouse #wv #USA #travel

Good morning all y’all! All the critters are fed. Cucumber beetles picked and drowned, eggs removed and mashed. Storm rolled through last night and dropped 1/2 inch of rain. Memorial service for the nephew at noon. Then I am officiating a wedding at 2:00. #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #chickens #ducks #garden #gm #pv 🤙 #spring #food #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr #foodstr

Nematodes applied. Spinach is over. I might start more. Kale and chard still going. Trimmed herbs to dry. A few strawberries and blueberries were ready. The blackberry is okay but not much production this year. #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #blueberries #strawberries #herbs #garden #gm #pv 🤙 #spring #food #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr #foodstr

Brunch salad. This is about 50/50 homegrown and store bought. The eggs, chard, kale, spinach, zucchini flower, and peas were grown here. The tuna, dressing, tomatoes, and carrots are store bought. It was yummy! #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #chickens #ducks #garden #gm #pv 🤙 #spring #food #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

Hope how soon the nematodes get here. I managed to drop these striped beetles in some soapy water but that won’t work long. holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #chickens #ducks #garden #pests #gm #pv 🤙 #spring #food #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

I have a few bush beans on the way. Also earwigs! Earwigs have stripped my parsley. #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #chickens #ducks #garden #gm #pv 🤙 #spring #food #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

Good morning all y’all. Mr. Holstein is on vacation this week. Hope to get a few things done here and at dad’s. Rain overnight and today reducing garden work. Didn’t find the nematodes yesterday.

Good morning all y'all! Critters fed, poultry tended, gardens checked. Already finding some striped cucumber beetles on my zucchini. I need to go to Rural King today so may look for nematodes. Dad's deposits and some other errands on the to-do list today. #holsteinhouse #garden #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

Good morning all y’all! Porch garden coming along. Strawberries, tomatoes and peas. My peppers are slow to grow but hanging in there. #holsteinhouse #wv #usa #travel #bnb #chickens #ducks #garden #gm #pv 🤙 #spring #food #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr

Good morning all y’all! Today is forecasted to be the hottest on record so far for 2025. All critters and poultry tended. Garden watered. Here’s a petunia my grandnephew gave me for Mother’s Day. #holsteinhouse #flowers #wv #usa #travel #bnb #gm #pv 🤙 #nostr #grownostr #bnbstr
