Did you know waterfowl need essential vitamins like vitamin B and E for proper growth! Peas are a great source of vitamin B. We like to boil, rinse in cold water and makes pea smothies for our younger ducks.

Anyone who knows me well knows steve was and always has been my guiding voice. At a young age he showed me a beautiful world begging to be explored and taught me not to fear creatures big and small. I think he is why i talk to every creature i met and thank them for giving me part of their day. 🥰

Sometimes the uncontrollable urge to get covered in dirt takes over…. What started as removing the old dead herbs turned into fluffy up the dirt in all my pots and trying to fix my old handmade trellis..
