Happy Easter from Chiot’s Run!

This is a journal of my small organic gardens in north eastern Ohio, zone 5(a). Our gardens are named after our dog Lucy, a big brown/black lab mix from the local pound. We started calling her “Chiots” when she was a puppy and the name stuck. She thinks the yard and gardens belong to her, she chases away all squirrels & rabbits and the UPS man.
Our yard is very small and fairly shady, we are surrounded by woods all 3 sides. The soil is made up of rocks and clay, not the best, but I’ve spent 7 years adding chicken manure & compost. When we first moved in 8 years ago, the gardens were in terrible shape from years of neglect and too many chemical pesticides and fertilizers. It has taken years to reset the balance of nature and we're finally starting to see the fruit of our efforts. We unearth worms when we dig and we are seeing more and more birds and beneficial insects in the gardens. The soil is also starting to improve after years and years of hard work amending it with all kinds of organic compost.

…Aww, love the eggs! They look just like what I collect everyday from my girls. Mine are not pasture fed altho’ I do have a chicken tractor in the works so they can roam safely but I do have them on a all plant protein feed. And yes, they are beautiful just as they are! :o)
…Happy Easter to you both and your families too!
…Blessings… :o)

Love the colors of the eggs. So subtle are the pinks, brown, blue and green.
