Found this alien looking plant at the farm, I think it's artichoke globes.
@EmeraldBitch
Even though the plot is covered in weeds, lots of food has still grown good.
@EmeraldBitch
A very pretty sunflower at the farm 🌻
@EmeraldBitch
Our veg plot is filled with weeds, had to leave it a few weeks because I had a baby and the weather has been so bad 🌧️ it will take a good few hours to clear it all 🌿
@EmeraldBitch
Peppers 🫑 very exciting 😁
@EmeraldBitch
Finally one of the champagne roses is starting to bloom 🌹

Trying to induce labour with spicy food 🤰🏻

This fly at first glance looks like a wasp or hornet but it's not, closer look and the head is different, there is no stinger and the body is flat. Insects have very clever defense mechanisms, it's impressive 🪰🐝🪰
@EmeraldBitch
Another little harvest... My chickens have been eating my peas 🐔 it all adds to the goodness of their eggs 🥚
@EmeraldBitch
Bernie has started laying eggs 🥚 she is a copper black maran and her eggs are supposed to be a superior egg, they are supposed to be chocolate brown coloured but at the moment they are a light beige just like the other eggs 🤔 maybe as she matures they will change colour 🐔
@EmeraldBitch
And my first rose has died 🌹 it had a short but beautiful life.
@EmeraldBitch
Gooseberries 😋
@EmeraldBitch
Poor Bernie still hasn't settled in with the other girls 🐔 but I do see some progress.
@EmeraldBitch
Everyone with a backgarden or yard should really get some chickens. The eggs are so delicious and the chickens are fun to watch, they are a little smelly but it's actually quick and easy to clean their coop and any poo around the garden and that's coming from someone that hates cleaning. 🐔🥚🐔
@EmeraldBitch
The garden is filling up, loads of pea pods and a few little pumpkins too
@EmeraldBitch
There is only 1 little patch of dirt in my backyard and the chickens love it there haha they love to roll in it 🐔
@EmeraldBitch
Peggy is a very curious bird, she's also fearless. You have to mind your fingers and toes around her though, she's a pecker 🐔
@EmeraldBitch
A little harvest today 😀
@EmeraldBitch
Transplanted my grape plant to its final pot, I'm so pleased with this plant and so excited to get grapes from it 🍇
@EmeraldBitch
Everything is so much yummier when you grow it yourself, these strawberries are the nicest I've ever eaten 🍓😋🍓
@EmeraldBitch
Flowers look so good in macro shots 🌼
@EmeraldBitch
Beautiful flowers my husband bought me as part of a wedding anniversary gift ❤️
@EmeraldBitch
Two little baby caterpillars 🐛
@EmeraldBitch
Poor Bernie hasn't had the best start, the weather has been terribly wet and miserable and the other chickens have been pecking at her a bit. I did a little research and it can take around a month for chickens to get used to eachother and this can involve bullying, Bernie needs to find her place on the pecking order... I just feel so bad for her, it must be scary 🐔
@EmeraldBitch
The newest member of our chicken family 🐔 and the last unless we buy another coop. Very pretty bird and seems sweet, has lovely feathers over the feet so kind of looks like they have boots on haha It is a copper black maran, and her name is Bernie.
@EmeraldBitch
A few strawberries ready, they were so tasty 😋🍓😋
@EmeraldBitch
Our first egg was a double egg and tasted so good, I thought it wouldn't be that nice because it was the first egg but it was super tasty, nicest egg I've ever eaten 🥚🐔🥚
@EmeraldBitch
Loving my rose bush 🌹
@EmeraldBitch
My grape plant is doing so good 🍇 I can't believe I thought this was dead only a few weeks ago.
