Country Living: Farming…

Hello Everyone.

 

 

The lessons that I\’ve learned thus far in country living is that some of you think that you\’ll be running to the hills when Sunday laws are passed.  But this is not so…  There are so many lessons to be learned when purchasing a country property.

 

 

Take for instance; our soil that needs to be revived.  So in order to really produce effective crops, we have to make sure that our soil is ready.  What I mean by that is that maybe our soil is too acidic and therefore, we can\’t grow the right crops in that area.  So now we have to get that area together so that we can now produce crops.  You may have to add certain things such as lime; such as fertilizer; maybe grass seeds. You might have to till it and you may not have the tractor.  You may have to contact a farmer in the area or wait until you buy a tractor to till your own land.

 

So I just want to be very clear and specific about when you move out to the country.  Sometimes things are not what they may seem or what they may appear to be.  You may be so excited to leave out, however, your property might not be ready to produce crops as you would like so that you could be in the industry of buying and selling.

 

It\’s so important to move out now so that you can get acclimated to your property; so that you can adjust to your soil; so that you can fix things before the time comes when you can\’t buy or sell.

 

Before I end this blog, I just wanted to say it takes time and time takes care of everything.  So be encouraged.  \”Understand inch by inch, anything\’s a cinch.\”  That\’s what they always say in the country.  lol

 

Thank You.

Lessons From The Garden: Time For Thyme.

Hi Everybody.

Today is a GREAT day!  You know why?  It\’s because I\’ve started my seed-starting greenhouse kit.  I am doing my herbs and I am feeling very challenged.  You know why I\’m feeling challenged???  It\’s because out of all of my herbs, THYME is the one that is really giving me a hard TIME.  lol

Everyone, I just wanted to mention that this THYME is really testing my TIME and my patience.  Growing the herb THYME might take a lot of TIME physically to try to catch on to the seeds.  They\’re almost like the size of a mustard seed – which we have to have Faith the size of a mustard seed – in order to endure; in order to push through our situations.  But I want to encourage you that in due TIME, the THYME will grow.  It\’ll sprout and give me a plethora of plants and I will produce from taking my TIME in order to plant the THYME.  So folks, don\’t get discouraged. Don\’t give up.  Gardening is about perfecting our characters.  It\’s about enduring until the end.  It\’s about GOD perfecting our characters as well as our patience so that we can produce perfection.  Like the Bible says: \”But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing.\”  James 1:4 KJV

Those are my lessons from the garden.

Have a Great Day!
