Tuesday, January 29, 2013. Back to Normal in God's Country. He recommended uploading photo's onto photobucket and then you can upload them onto your blog for free and there is no charge per month.

Applegarth Farm: Goat Cheeses ~ Varieties I've Been Learning To Make
http://applegarthgardens.blogspot.com/2014/12/goat-cheeses-varieties-ive-been.html

Zolena our Lamancha dairy goat, and Jersey our Nubian dairy goat. Goat's Milk Blue Cheese with pears from our orchard. Raw goat's milk Blue ...

Applegarth Farm: April 2014
http://applegarthgardens.blogspot.com/2014_04_01_archive.html
Tuesday, April 29, 2014. The Honeybees Have Arrived! Yesterday I installed a package of honeybees that came in over the weekend. They arrived just in time to pollinate the apple blossoms over the next couple of weeks. Right now they're feasting on dandelion pollen, see how they're legs have pollen sac's that are full. I've been keeping bees for about 7 years now and they're just part of my garden routine. They're tireless little workers that are fun to watch. Grazing in the Sunshine and Dandelions. My hu...

Thursday, February 28, 2013. The Calm Before Spring. I'm also moving out all the raspberries that had to be in there because of the deer, and forming to large rows behind the garden. I have a lot of raspberries to move while they're still dormant. Everything is beginning to show signs of life, thus the scramble. You think I'm mischievous! SighI still love you though. Ace and Jesu, Father and Son, meeting for the first time! Saturday, February 23, 2013. I am excited because they have turned out better tha...
