The garden is going fine. Just harvested about a pound of peas (snap, shelling but mostly snow). The brussels sprouts are starting to show, which is cool because I was totally not sure how they were going to show up. They send up a big stalk with big leaves and hang around for awhile. Then you notice little buds begin to form at the crux of the leaves and those are what will become the brussels.

I finally put the finishing touches on the coop, I think and I hope. I put roofs on the nest boxes so hopefully the chickens will stop roosting on the top walls and actually go inside. And I rigged a way to hang the waterer so that it will both be reachable for us to refill and the chickens won't be able to knock it over, also so it won't leak too much when we move the coop. All we have to do now is wait for them to start laying probably in September or so.
