Wanderer by name
@wandererbyname.bsky.social
Nurse in western Colorado. Small scale, low water farming in the high desert. Nerdy and androgynous. Love your neighbors. I share cool pictures like the one you see above that I took. Grow food and donate it just because it's a nice thing to do
Our neighbor is doing landscaping and left a bunch of junk and spare materials around on our property - clearly they didn't know where the line was. They just moved in!
I went over and was nice about it and walked away with some flagstone remnants I promptly installed in the chicken coop!! ♻️

It's been awhile but the desert growing season outside is finally over, so we have started the greenhouse 🌱🫛 for overwintering our next round of vegetables!
Wishing everyone an abundance this holiday season!

Proof of concept. We can grow saffron here!! 🌱🫛
There are only a dozen saffron farms in the USA and the price will skyrocket with global warming - if you live in a dry hot climate or anything similar to Iran you can absolutely grow this crocus, it's easy and doesn't require hardly any water!!

Doing the sand base for a chicken coop is the way to go. Cleaning the coop today felt like doing a zen garden!
Really enjoying the birds. The two minorcas still do not want to go back in the coop at night and I have to herd them back in!
Attached is a dust bath party

The wyandottes are super scared of anything but the front porch, but the minorcas are first out each day!!
The minorcas don't care about the dogs either for some reason?

I have 4 pounds of tomatoes frozen for the winter, about a gallon of tomato paste, 8 jars of frozen spaghetti sauce, we gave away more than 100 POUNDS of tomatoes, and still the plants are producing!!
At this point I'm exhausted from picking tomatoes. We don't pick the micro minis anymore 🌱🫛

So we are hiking and an adorable bunny creature SCREAMS at us - and it's apparently called a Pika!
Scream on my friend, because screaming is the song of 2025. I mean you no harm madam
