Mount Cheaha

Our first trip to Mount Cheaha, Alabama was interesting. It started with a bit of a mishap with our camper – one we can blame Momma on. She’s not used to making wide turns and made direct contact with a guard rail and the entire right side of the camper. The side with the stairs, which were busted up, and the 2 entry doors to the camper.

Growing our first seeds!

August is a big month for the farm! We started planting seeds for some of our favorite and most popular microgreens! Just a couple of weeks and we will have tasty, nutritious greens to add to any meal.

Wheatgrass, Sunflower sprouts, Pea sprouts

First Harvest

August 31, 2019

We harvested our first microgreens! Sunflower sprouts and Pea Sprouts. They looked devine and tasted delicious! I shared the Pea sprouts with the church family Satuday night and ran out quickly. I washed the sunflower sprouts as directed and set them out to air dry. Unfortunately that was when a child fell from the trampoline (she’s fine, thank you) and I was rushing to give proper healing. Then I realized what time it was – I had an hour to get a shower and bathe 5 kids – the world started spinning and I forgot about my poor sunnies that were wilting by the minute. It wasn’t until after my shower that I realized my mistake. I quickly ran outside and tossed them in a tupperware to cool off in the fridge. It made me so sad because out of the two I really liked the mild flavor and crunch to the sunnies. I didn’t want the first impression of my harvest to be these poor, wilted sunnies. 😦

No worries, the pea sprouts brought at least two customers interested in orders. I’m good with that.
