Poultry Talk Ontario (pto.ca)

Garlic planted and garden almost put to bed, accept for the Brussel sprouts, which are still in the garden, covered very carefully for protection from the marauding herds, or so I naively thought......

Probably thinks you are protecting them just for her. Ha! Ha! Cute to see though.

Have to get our garlic in this weekend...looks like you had a great helper!

Too funny about the deer :).

I have a row of chard and a row of kale. The chickens get 2 kale leaves every day and the dogs enjoy some stalk pieces :).

I noticed they have been working on couple of green butternut squashes left out in the garden, as I am looking at the shelf full of squash in cold storage, I might be sneaking them back out again, for the deer to help with the pile, not that I want to encourage them, but I think we are already on their shopping round.

I had no idea that dogs like kale stalks ... will have to offer one to our dog to see if he likes it because, like you, I grow kale for my chickens. And quail. Because DH doesn't like kale (unless I sneak it into pasta sauce or soup).

Love the fact the first deer brought a friend...lol

Mother daughter team, she started with two, always brings the babies in to show them what I am planting and what will be available thru the summer to supplement their hosta / cedar diet. :)
