Meet your CSA pest control

Tuesday, June 29, 2010
Both Carol and Mona started this spring out with some new additions at the gardens; baby turkeys, guinea hens, and chickens. As many of you may already know the grasshoppers were very detrimental to the produce last year and were anticipated to be as bad, if not worse for this season- so in came the pest control! The grasshoppers still seem to have the upper hand, but these little guys (and girls) are doing a great job (and they are fun to have around)!!

OH I love TURKEYS!!! Love these pictures, you have a great flock of grasshopper eaters!!!
I bet they are fun to have around, as you say.......I know we love our chickens! We call ours the "pecky old hens club".

Candace, my turkeys are lazy compared to the guineas. They lay about waiting for a free lunch and only work for their meals when I do not feed them breakfast! The chickens are lovely critters, much smarter than a turkey or a guinea. They can actually find their way around a corner! See you next week. Carol
