Chicken's at Porterfarms
We brought home 6 chicks in late Feb. 2014 after finally getting approval from the town zoning
committee. Wow what a learning experience that was! I researched and spoke with lawyers like it
was my full time job. The ChickenChick was an incredible source of valuable information, I highly
recommend looking at her blog and Face Book page if you think you might consider getting
chickens. So I cried like a baby when they approved our property, out of happiness and relief.
Four Easter Eggers- Piper, Olive, Rebba, Penny and two Golden Comets-Ginger and Cornflake came
home to our brooder box at 1 day old. Oh the joy and smiles that came from our basement that
month. My husband Allen and I built the coop together and the enclosed run came shortly after with
the help from my children Sydney and Parker. It takes a village to raise 6 chicks ya know.

I love these babies. Now they are big girls and laying eggs for us to eat and share with friends. There are brown, pink, blue and green eggs.

Turning 50
My family had a Dinner en blanc for me. Then my husband Allen and I went to Block Island for a weekend get a way. It was so fabulous to be loved and cherished by my family. Here are a few shots of my celebration.
Turning 50th was actually quite fun! My family had a fabulous party for me at Maxx fish.

The last haul
Weighing your haul is important so you can prepare for what you will need in terms of jars and other ingredients Please note the cat "Chloe" in the back round is paying close attention . |
It's messy but fun work as you cut the fruit into pieces to slip into the jars. |
Plum tomatoes have more flesh and make for great sauce! |
Place lid on clean rim and finger tighten the ring. |
Place in a hot water canner and bring to a boil, quarts are processed for about 35 min.s. |
