Welcome to Our Website!
8/23 We've been doing most of our postings on the blog. Summer is flying by, school has already started. Drop by and subscribe to the blog to keep current with our goings on around Pate Farms. Our little goats have been growing a lot, and it's time to put a few up for sale. I wish I could keep them all, but you can only have so many billies on a small farm. Morning glories have taken over the garden...we've planted a few late tomato plants, and some squash ...hopefully we'll get a little in before the first frost... We need to clean out all the weeds once again and plant a few fall veggies...turnip greens sound good, and a little brocolli,...But It's a rainy day to day...so it'll have to wait a while longer...
7/29 The rain sure is making the grass grow...no complaints here...but how are you mowing your grass...check out our four-horse mower system on the blog...
7/22/08 Lauren came over for a visit today. She wanted to learn how to make homemade biscuits. Click here to see more pictures about her biscuit making adventure. How did you get that flour on your toes Lauren?
We had lots of fun!
The Home Page has been getting a little lengthy so we are archiving it...so if you feel like browsing...you can do so under Summer Postings 2008. Also, please remember to check the blog. We'll do most of our writing there on the happenings at the farm.
