Pumpkins, doors, and compost.

Just a quick update

Pumpkins are here! Finally, the little guys are popping up. So far the irrigation is working (although we've had enough rain that we haven't really had to use it).

 To top that off, the stall doors and walls are done!! they look beautiful and are all from reclaimed wood from building projects and old fence boards (minus a handful of new boards for the posts). A little wire for the tops and we're golden. So far the girls aren't amused at being confined.

And, I moved out our compost bin to be close to the pumpkins so I can keep my mulch for top dressing the hugelkultur mounds later. It is also made from reclaimed material- this time plastic fencing from a business who installed this type of fencing and decided they didn't want to keep all of their displays when they moved so they gave us the mismatched pieces.

Just two weeks until the new girls (and boy) arrive plus sheep/alpaca shearing will be finished in the next two weeks as well. Praise the Lord!
