I really love when plants volunteer on the homestead! We almost always have pumpkins coming up in front beds where pumpkins were kicked off the front porch the year before. And the compost pile will always produce numerous vegetables! Sometimes even the Animals will plant seeds for you!
We feed Black Oil Sunflower Seeds, or BOSS, to all the animals for extra nutrition! We gave Mr. Christmas a bunch in the spring apparently more than he could eat... So right next to him we have several beautiful sunflowers growing!
I was excited that we could harvest some to feed our animals and even eat some ourselves. But... The goldfinches have already eaten most of them! It's a good thing we love wildlife as much as our own animals!
Maybe we can beat them before the next ones are ready! Thanks for reading!
