Chicks N Crops

Morning harvest. We’re still learning our ways around the watermelon. They’ve grown too big, too watery and not very sweet. We need to fix that. This year, we grew (my Liberian people gather here 😜)bitterballs and molokhia on our first try. The beans also did well. Melons and squashes and cucumbers, tomatoes and peppers are always a hit around here.

Farm to table.

We’ve had some decent rain the last couple weeks and the plants are thriving out here on the homestead. Radishes are ready, so are the collard greens and strawberries. April Mae and Dama B are constantly having strawberry banana smoothie to stay cool in this Texas heat. And did I mention that we’re having some promising luck with growing bitter balls and Molokhia (palava leaves) out here?! The Liberian girl in me is stoked!
