IT'S SIMPLY SUMMER!

IT IS SUMMER TIME.  SCHOOL IS OUT. 

THE REAL WORK HAS BEGUN.

  We have finally made it to summer! SMILES ALL AROUND! For some people summer is a time to lay on your basement floor, eating Oreos, drinking an ice coffee and moaning about the heat. Doesn't sound so bad right? Well, they're unfortunate. When summer swings around for us it is packed. And when I say packed, I mean packed, like a box of Pringles. Correction, a cylinder of Pringles.
Vegetables must be picked, sprouts must be watered, beds must be weeded, CSA's have to be put together, and a ton more.


Our plants are grown with lots of love and a lot of hard work. 
My mom is a superstar.
Single mom with five kids, ten thousand chickens, five turkeys, four horses, two dogs, and acres and acres sowed land. All mostly because of my mom. THANK YOU MOMMY :)  But obviously she can't do it all alone.

My big brother. Well let's just say he's pretty chill. Here's a funny story for you:
So Otto, my brother, was walking down the dark streets of NYC and pretty much what happened was some big tall guy thought he was gorgeous and handed him a business card. That man is now my brothers modeling agent and right now he's off in Milan, Italy striking poses and living his twenties. Otto randomly gets called away for photo shoots and runways. So one spring weekend my brother was home working his tail off planting sweet potatoes. Then he got a call, they needed him to be in France the very next day.
He planted five hundred sweet potatoes, and left, dressed in his wet muddy pants with dirt on his hands and under his fingernails.
Yep, thats Otto for yah. :) I couldn't ask for a better brother, or mom. Or a better family in general.
 Back to the garden... Well right now it's raining but the weather has been beautiful and the plants have been growing.
 LETTUCE THANK THE SUN. (:

TURN THAT FROWN UPSIDE DOWN. ONIONS!!!!!!





MY LOVELY SISTER LUCY GOOSY. 
So, the garden is growing, the sun is shining, well soon it will be, and everybody has a smile on their face.
Summer is just great isn't it? It's simply amazing. Here at Simple Livin' Farm we like to work hard and accomplish tasks. Trust me though, it wouldn't ever work if there was no play. (: THANKS FOR READING THE BLOG. COME AND SEE THE GARDEN.
