A little bit of demolition!

I was getting impatient for the construction to start so I helped move things along by "removing" this old pump house that was really just full of garbage. It came down amazingly easy considering that it was old cinder block. There were, however, at least three roofs on it. Ugh!






Bye Bye Chicken Coop!

This has been a long time coming! This was a chicken coop from the previous owner and it was filled with an even 4" layer of chicken manure. We estimate it to have been built in the 1940's sometime as we found a Kayo chocolate drink bottle underneath along with other unwanted garbage as is the tradition here at Lucky Dog Farm.

Honey A' comin!

Springtime is time for bees. Richard is an experienced bee keeper going back to his youth in Princeton, NJ. We started with these two hives and recently added another that was  already building its honeycomb. With any luck we'll have honey this fall!
