Larry's Family Farm

Some days are chicken. Some days are feathers.
I don't have anything for the world today.
Not a day goes by that I don't think of you son. From the minute you were born to you sitting on your pony in nothing but a diaper and your straw cowboy hat as you followed me everywhere I went moving sprinkler pipe on our ranch or splitting firewood. There you were. Then as my fishing buddy and later on as my hunting partner. As you grew into manhood you possessed magic in your hands as you knew how to handle tools and how to think ahead as we built homes and worked on so many projects together. Somehow you made it through cancer at the young age of 19. Strong, smart, talented with a heart of gold. I miss you Son.

No need to die. Be patient for a couple of minutes.

UPDATE 15 days later these Elderberry have grown from 6' average height to 8' plus in height. The flowers are beginning to develop. They'll be in full bloom within the next 10-14 days.
Bare in mind that the Winter of 2026 suffered a Major Freeze that killed most if not all fruit crops throughout the Great Basin. No Apples, Cherries, Plums, Pears, Apricots, Peaches. Zero. Nada.
What did survive and came through with flying colors are the Wasatch Wild variety of the American Black Elderberry. Originally discovered high up in the Wasatch Mountains the Wasatch Wild Elderberry has Genetic Superiority over many of the flatland Elderberry varieties.

Time. Time and Energy. I need more of each. This time of the year I have so much to get done. There are so many things that I would like to share here on our page. I have every intention of posting pictures and short videos depicting the everyday process and events that go into soil building, growing elderberry, planting and caring for our family garden and food plot. Id especially like to make and share some videos of my little Aussie pal Maverick. He is my shadow all day long. Except when there are Magpies that need to be chased away.
I'll try to make time to keep you more involved with the daily activities that are essential to the success of our little Family Farm.

Soil.
Often (almost always) overlooked. We have been Trained to run down to the Big Box stores to Spend Money on Chemicals. CHEMICALS that end up in our Food and in our Body.
What rlse can we do?
Well, grab your favorite beverage, sit back and learn.
