Muddy Boo Farm

I got over 20 reactions on one of my posts last week! Thanks everyone for your support! 🎉 I'm posting this specifically because Facebook is flagging and not recommending this page because supposedly it thinks I'm not posting unique content. What???!!! These are legitimate photos of my garden and my backyard wildlife encounters. This platform is impossible!

Heres some aphid farming happening and some lady bugs and baby lady bugs for good measure. Wish me luck!

I've been waiting 5 years for this peony. For those who don't know, peony hates to be moved, but with patience you are rewarded with the most vivid blooms and beautiful fragrance.
Our lettuce is looking fantastic thanks to the cool weather. Our garlic is also lush. Raspberries are flowering and right on schedule. Everything but squash and cucumber is in the ground. We've been giving away plants like crazy, and if you are looking for tomato starts, we still have some. Whats left will be tucked into every corner, because we go through a lot of them around here.
Thanks to an early start, we have peppers on both hot and sweet plants, and the first flowers on cherry tomatoes. Despite the early start, things seem to be a few weeks behind thanks to the multiple cold snaps and Nor'easter. Ill swing back around with photos one we are getting real production. Im thinking we may start some short videos, but thats never been my specialty, so stay tuned and happy gardening!

We've been picking asparagus slowly as it comes along. Not too much, but just enough to have it a few times, which is just right for us. Ignore the small amount of lettuce. I swear we grow more, but this is for the little old lady cat, who is a huge fan of lettuce, especially when its fresh. We primarily grow it for her 😁. We decided today was the day for these mushrooms. We could have let it go more but they seemed like they were getting fried at 95°. Not sure what the plan is, other than we are going to eat them. We also have brewed this fantastic Pilsner thanks to help from Pinter USA. Its as good as anything we've made or purchased and we are pleasantly surprised. Its been a long, long 3 weeks waiting for a taste 😆. Crisp, bubbly, and just a perfect beer for this time of year.

Things have been so busy here, I didnt even get to brag about Bobweiser and all his magical ideas! Check out this little New England adjustment. We start plants in our attic, because our greenhouse just isnt up to seed starting temps when I need it to be in February, March and April. Being an old house, we get some temp variation even inside as Massachusetts presets the full array of weather while its thawing out. I’ve been complaining that it really is an issue, and one day he just whipped this up in an hour. Boom, temps stabilized to magical 70s, and I can pin the door open when it warms up. Everything here is plugging along, and as usual, I WILL have extra transplants! Ill post more on what im growing later.
