Wow!  It's been a busy month for us both!  I have been working way too much in my opinion because of the harvest coming in and Geoff has been stressed out with his transition to living here.

We have made some progress on the greenhouse, but not enough.  We tore up all the sod in the greenhouse and shook the dirt out of it, which was pretty backbreaking but totally worth it.  My garden wizard mom lent us her broadfork, which made it possible to lift the sod out and shake the good dirt and worm castings out while getting rid of all the nasty quack grass rhizomes.

The finished product looked really awesome!  I got a load of bunny manure on labor day weekend and put a layer on top of the dirt.  As soon as we get the trusses up, we will be ready to plant.  We had better get them up SOON though, we are quickly running out of time.

We also picked up a bunch of really nice local garlic at the farmer's market and plan to plant it soon.  Our first crops will soon be in the ground!

The same weekend we tore up the sod we had a bonfire fueled by the old house:

The last couple of weekends have been busy with Wheatland Music Festival and a friend's wedding, and this weekend Geoff makes the move!  He got a job here with a friend who has a crop farming business and will be starting right away.  We are very excited and just a little stressed!  In the meantime all of the corn around the house has come down and I'm getting ready for bow-season.  We are both preparing for our good friends' wedding, which Geoff will be officiating and I will be maid of honor in!  We are both REALLY hoping things calm down soon!
