When you are up close it can be hard to see the forest for the trees. But every know and then, when you give yourself the chance to step back, you catch a glimpse of that big picture. . Our place is a mess. The garden is a mess, the house is a mess, the chicken coop stinks, the shed is a mess, the yard is a mess, our fences are a mess... But man is our corner of this world beautiful when you look up and stop focusing on the small things!

Grow chives with your strawberries to fertilize the plants and deter pests. ⁣ ⁣ Trim the chives when they're finished flowers for a tidier look - and leave the chive trimmings are easily left as mulch around the strawberry plants. Win-win!

I had so much fun with this lovely ceramic urn from @fioriarteflorist this dahlia season. The neutral tone went with every colour palette I tried. Remembering these gorgeous flowers as we slash back and lift the dahlias.... all 1400 of them! Pictured here with a candle from @simpleretreat_candles which are made right here in Ballarat! #florelie #flowerarranging #fioriarteflorist #ihavethisthingwithflowers #prettythings #australiandahlias #flowerfarm #microfarm

The berm of this front yard swale is densely planted with strawberries and flowers.⁣ ⁣ Have you heard of permaculture swales? A #swale-which is a shallow trench dug along the land’s contour- mitigates stormwater runoff, is an easier way to catch rain than a tank or barrel, and builds self-sustaining ecosystems.⁣ ⁣ www.tenthacrefarm.com/what-is-a-swale

Current team in the high tunnel. This system is obviously not the most efficient use of space, but it’s a breeze to swap between crops. Over dimensioned for personal usage and on the small side for a microfarm. Nonetheless I’m very pleased how the idea turned into reality.

It's pretty much her life goals right now to just hold as many chickens as she can in a day. She spends so much time following them around and trying to pick them up. When she finally gets one she gently holds them and slowly walks around showing them the flowers, the worms and whatever else she finds interesting, talks to her "baby" chickens, all with the most contented look on her face. She melts me This is my favorite part about having animals! #blackcoppermarans #wellsummer #backyardchickens #freerangechickens #happychickens #backyardfarmer #microfarm #montanafarm #growingupoutdoors #getoutside #raisethemright
