July 2020 recap

July was a busy month with several renters and with harvesting from the gardens. Some of the highlights included:

1. replacing the solar batteries in the cabin. Should be good to go for another 10 years now!

2. We had a visit from this nice deer right below our deck. I've also seen multiple fawns during my morning commute to Great Falls each day.

3. We harvested a lot of wild currents and chokecherries. We've been making syrups for flavoring our homemade kombucha - yum!

4. We've also been taking the time to enjoy the beautiful scenery around us!

5. We've been enjoying so many carrots and broccoli, and have been storing garlic and onions for the winter. Tomatoes are also starting to come in, which means we need to start thinking about canning soon! So far we've just been focusing on caprese salad for dinner most nights :)

6. The new chicks we got this spring are starting to lay eggs! We're now getting close to dozen per day, and looking for more customers - only $3/dozen for "happy eggs"!

We hope you've been having a wonderful summer too!
