Smelly Gold


Our gardens this year have been like no other.  The amount and size of our produce......... incredible!


If I were blog savvy I would have washed these peppers first before taking this photo but I'm not......  it is what it is.  Veggies grow in the dirt and they'll have mud on them when picked.  Keepin' it real folks!


We did however wash them quite well before attacking and chopping up bags upon bags of peppers.  I made The Natives sit around the kitchen table and help me chop peppers.  We're not finished.  We've a cooler in the garage full of peppers still.  Hmmm, wonder what I'm going to make The Natives help me with today!!!  Hahahaha!  Evil cackle!

So what made my garden so smashing successful this year?  The only thing I can think of that is different...............  drum roll..............  chicken poo.  Yup!   My chickens working hard fertilizing my veggie gardens.  Who knew chicken poo could be so golden!!??  Now you know!

  3. Yep chicken poo is good stuff which is great considering how much of it your average chicken produces in a day - poop factories they are! I am completely amazed though at how much you've grown - a bounteous harvest indeed, thank goodness for freezers that will let you enjoy these jewels of summer in the depths of winter :)

    1. Considering how 'small' chickens are, it is really quite amazing at the amount of poo they produce! Thank goodness it is good for something!! :) Other than smelling. Which reminds me, I've still a cooler in the garage full of more peppers that need to be taken care of and put into the freezer......... !
