Coral and James help learn how to plaster!

         

Dave and Barbara Larson have built an adobe guest house, a straw bale and cob workshop, and a beautiful straw bale house on thier property just down the road from Windancer Ranch. They belive in simple living without over extending means and credit to live. They hope to teach average people with average tools how to build their own home without having to go into debt. You can learn more about thier homes and other adventures at http://www.simple-living-today.com/

 

 

Spring Planting

With the danger of frost over we began to fill the garden with many transplants of tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, eggplants, and melons. Our potatoes are coming up in the right corner and the onions are growing fast!

 

 

 

 

3 weeks later

   

The potatoes are now 2 feet tall and the squash are blooming. We pulled up all the garlic in the back corner of the garden.

Our cabbage is starting to head out. We picked 5 gallons of Apricots from the 75 yr old tees on the NFS property down the road. Delicious flesh!
