Turn on your volume! All of a sudden we were having a party! I could w**d next to this all day long🐝

Eeeeekkk! It's happening!! //Ranunculus//

05/11/2026

I've spotted a couple of buds in our Ranunculus beds! With cooler temps in the forecast blooms should be popping soon!

Today we’re installing shade cloth. While this unseasonably warm, sunny weather is glorious, it takes a toll on the ranunculus. Once we reach a sustained mid-70s, these plants tucker out and go dormant. Just when I think I’ve found the sweet spot, the weather throws a curveball. I generally start them the first week of February, but I may need to consider early January next season.

They’re due to bloom in two weeks, so I’m over here praying for cool, cloudy, rainy weather. I’m so sorry if my prayers get answered, but y’all we will have beautiful, abundant spring blooms!

Ranunculus, about 2 weeks from blooms, if all goes well

Shade cloth over the Cilantro and Parsley...note to self: plant waaaaay earlier next season!

Tunnel 2- Snapdragons, Sweet William and Canterbury Bells.

Something new in our field

//Apricot Swirl Narcissus//

There's a whole world of daffodil varieties that many of us haven't tapped into yet. It's kind of exciting!

A lot of nurseries buy manure from out of state without knowing the quality or what the animals ate. Then there’s the issue of sewage sludge... 🙄 It gets spread all over the county, but as this video shows, it can really hurt our gardens.
Personally, I only use compost from a local organic farm that does small-batch production. I feel lucky to be one of their regulars! I also use my own chicken manure and source local worm castings. It’s time we brought things closer to home.

Yesterday, we had to take one of our beloved mousers, Ferb, to North Idaho Animal Hospital in Sandpoint. He seemed listless, so I asked my husband to check on him, and he suggested we take him in. He was jaundiced, and his liver enzymes were elevated. After ruling out a virus, they determined it was environmental. It’s still a mystery what he got into, but rat poison came up several times. I’m happy to report that when I checked on Ferb this morning, he was drinking water and eating. This is a good sign, and I feel hopeful that he will pull through. I’m impressed with NIAH's care, and I will take my animals there again with confidence.
But I’m troubled about the whole rat poison subject. We’re in a rural community, and we’ve had mousers here for close to 20 years without such an issue. We also have many new neighbors in the area who may not understand the environmental hazards posed by using rat poison to our local wildlife, pets, and farm animals. We keep and care for several mousers, and when I say 'care,' they are loved as much as our indoor animals. They’re an asset to our small herb and flower farm. We do not have a rodent issue because of them; we treat them as royalty, and they know it! When you use poison in an attempt to control rodents, and I understand very much why one would resort to such measures, but all too often that mouse will not die right away, and it’s basically a walking poison pouch for a cat, dog, eagle, hawk, osprey, poultry, or any animal that would eat or play with a mouse. I understand there are many people who disagree with keeping cats outside, but I tell you, they are an important part of the ecosystem, whether you live in the country or the city.
Cats are built to hunt and control rodent populations. They are smart and know how to survive, and most are part of a feline community. Have you ever watched Mr. Kitters the Cat on IG? If not, follow him; his owners keep a camera on him as he traverses the neighborhood. As I have mentioned, we have zero issues with rodents. My advice, if you live in the country, get yourself a few mousers, have them spayed or neutered, treat them well, and they will happily hunt those rodents for you!
