Kettle soured pumpkin ale is on tap at Darbro Farms. It is definitely unique! I opted to skip the traditional pumpkin pie spices and just let the sour pumpkin twang shine through. This beer was brewed with fresh dried Darbro

Playing in the mud

Elsa wound up playing in the mud while I spread on fertilizer. Luckily I got her mostly hosed off before mom got home!

Today was a rainy day on the hop farm. Elsa and I had drafted up new hops field signs in vCarve and it was a good time to fire up the CNC machine.

Crawdad hole

Holly and I went down to water the new Columbia and Multihead hop plants. Elsa spent her time on the hop pond tire swing. Seems we also have no shortage of crawdads in the hop field pond. Kinda funny since

Annual hay bale pic

The hay meadow was baled yesterday. Had to make sure we got our annual haybale picture. Either the bales are getting smaller or Elsa bigger!

Tire swing

Elsa and I took time out from weed eating to put up a tire swing at the hop field pond.

Annual haybale picture

Elsa has had her picture taken on a hay bale every summer of her life. I obvious held her up for the first several. Those days have sadly past. Nowadays she dances on top and doesn’t even need much help

Elsa in her playhouse

I take care of everything…but not everything. Out on my playhouse patio. There are Hops growing up the balcony. I was breaking open and smelling some of them. They smelled like peppermints.

First year Chinook hops climbing and forming burrs

I love my chickens

Sometimes I take care of my chickens. I feed them and sometimes we open the little door so they can get out of the chicken coop.
