Hey y'all! So I see I lost contact. I do apologize. I love sharing my journey and reading about your journeys as well, but honestly this farming this has me running sun up to sun down. We spend the hottest part of the day homeschooling Farm boy and Farm girl. Then once the heat cools a bit, we are back to it. We've taken on some new ventures. Along with our strawberries, we are now doing mushrooms. What a blast that has been! Lots of learning new things, and getting to experiment with some cool looking shrooms. No worries about the legality of our fungus, we're growing safe, legal, and delicious mushrooms. Right now were doing Oyster and Shiitake.

Chris built us a really awesome fruiting chamber using a plastic greenhouse from Amazon for $88, a plastic tote, a computer fan, a humidity meter, an exhaust van, and some dryer duct. Once we got the mushrooms up and running we started looking into getting lettuce growing in the summer. That is still a work in progress. We are watching Ray Tyler's videos on repeat, and then we realized we bought the ecourse. So right now our main focus is getting mushroom supply way up to sell to restaurants, growing lettuce year round, getting our strawberries supply WAY up, and then growing seasonally. Our whole box idea isn't coming into fruition yet as our tractor has been out of service for a few weeks. Finally got the parts in today and Chris got it back up and running! Welp I'm needed back in the field because tomorrow is market day! See y'all again soon :) ## Here's some of what we've been growing and taking to market each week! ![IMG_1258.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdURkoFuANd5qqj3pYZbF47hL6pJka5cyZhHpKkbe1EHA/IMG_1258.jpg)![IMG_2227.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmesyWXPEkt7H1UWoDDxpmgkjN1FWWmhGuyQdYSZRTe9Tx/IMG_2227.jpg)![IMG_1259.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmRhvvwVadqZp4kC7RHmoa78pC9A3zPnZFzqSrGhvNng3K/IMG_1259.jpg)
