Potatoe Update and Havesting Chives


Here is the Potatoes. They have grown enough to add more straw up the sides and compost.

 ADDING STRAW



Dad and Kaitlin getting compost for us and rotating it.


 ADDING COMPOST
I will wait another couple of weeks before I add the next layer.



HARVESTING SOME CHIVES
The girls and I went around and chopped some chives to put in the dehydrator.




 The chickens thought they might like it too!
 We got them from 3 different spots in the yard,
 that's why there is 3 bowls.
 Rinsed
 This batch looked different then the rest so I kept 
them separate.
Patting them dry.


The girls helped to arrange them in the trays

 We set the temp and had it on a timer for 24 hrs.

 24 HOURS LATER........

This made a jar full.
Skylar is happy!
