RE: Flippin Fabulous Seedy Scones
The scones look mouth watering delicious @lizelle. #farm-mom loves anything garnished with nuts, she even puts nuts on her peanut-butter and jelly sandwiches.
The rain barrels seem as though they are a necessity. Water here on the farm can become an issue during the hot summer months. Being that our garden gets a little bigger every year, we prefer not to use our well. Having a pond and having purchased a waste pump, when we haven't had rain in a while we revert to this setup.
The monkey proofing of the garden can't be an easy fix. The monkeys have to be able to get into most things. I thought we had problems keeping these guys out,
but I can only imagine what it takes to keep monkeys out of your garden.
What a great place Lily's Cottage looks like. It seems as though so many people have stayed in your wonderful place and all have enjoyed.
You must be very proud to have built such a great place, lots of hard work I'm sure.
You certainly are organised on your farm! Those little guys look gorgeous just as our monkeys look cute but both can cause havoc.
We are very proud of our Lily's Cottage.
Thanks for popping in @thebigsweed! !tip
So true with them causing havoc. We have come up with a remedy for the deer browsing on vegetation.
We use a mixture of eggs and milk. 6 eggs to a quart of milk, mixed with a blender, and then put in a spray bottle. This concoction is sprayed on all of @farm-mom's flowers as well as any other young trees we have planted. The stuff works like a charm. We don't use it on any of our vegetable plants after they have set fruit.
Thanks for your reply, up-vote and for the tip @lizelle.
Have a wonderful day!
That's a weird concoction to put them off! Makes me wonder if we should try something like bitter aloe to stop the monkeys raiding our veggies? Will have to look into that, don't want to kill the plants now.
Enjoy the rest of your day:)
