2 Bees Farm

A lot has been going on lately.  But I should start a month back until now.  Last month during that freak snow storm that hit the southwest, that is when we moved the farm truck from Texas to Arizona.  Of course whenever you plan time off work, the weather will be terrible.  This was the road in front of the farm. It's hard to figure out the scale of this property.   A lot of what looks like bushes are actually fully grown Pinion pine and Alligator Juniper trees. For scale that's our F150 truck next to a tree. We had a lot of chores planned to accomplish this weekend to make our move easier.  But other than leaving the truck, the only thing we did was designate our future driveway.  We have our 911 address set up.  So encase of an emergency, gps should be able to get emergency personnel to our farm.   We can't get mail delivered here.  That isn't a big deal, there were places in San Antonio ...

We just finished our 2019 garden plans for our potager garden.  I can't rave enough about The Farmer's Almanac's Garden Planner.  I originally tried the one through  BHG.com that is free.  It's great if you are doing a small backyard garden.  But it is really limited on what plants you can use or what buildings/planters are available.  I don't believe you can design an area over 100 sq ft.  The farmer's Almac Garden Planner is completely worth the $29 a year, if you need a more comprehensive planner..  It's another $6 for the app, if you want to connect them altogether.  I was able to get 10% off the program the day after Thanksgiving though. The Farmer's Almanac lets you design up to a 10,000 sq ft at a time.  Which I thought at first I would map out most of the farm's growing beds with that.  But I found it too overwhelming.  I personally like doing a section at a time.  Maybe one general full farm plan without...

Since we sold our house and have been living in our RV traveling back and forth between San Antonio, TX and Saint Johns, AZ, I decided I needed an alternative washing machine since my current one is in storage.  At the farm we don't have the wind/solar power set up yet, so I wanted something that wouldn't take up room in the RV.  Also that didn't require electricity since we try to run our generator as little as possible.  After reading a ton of reviews on a few different machines on Amazon I decided to try this one. I have had the Laundry POD about a week, I do laundry every day or every other day.  Then hang them up in my shower to dry.  How do I do laundry? I fill the basket about this full.  This is an average size load for me.  There is one pair of women's jeans, two men's shirts, a women's shirt, a pair of men's socks, a hand towel, a wash cloth, a dish towel and a pot holder.  Yes, I spray stain remover on anything that needs ...
