An urban micro farm experiment. Adventures in trying to live a simple life.

First snow of 2015
How quickly we adapt to the change in seasons in the midwest. You can go from planting tulip bulbs in almost warm soil to snow in just 2 days!
The leaves were still clinging to my big maple tree which provided a beautiful color contrast this morning. No more raking now! It's away with the garden tools and rakes and out with the snow shovels.
In historical order: printmaker, typographer, graphic designer, semi-professional handbell musician, radical minimalist and self-sustaining urban micro farmer and a collector of mid-century objects d'art.
The question is: can I turn the backyard of my home into an urban micro farm?
The verdict is still to come but through much planning, hard work and blissful ignorance, it definitely seems like a good possibility!
2009 was the official start of Daisy Farm.
The purpose of this blog is to serve as my written record of how things are going, a little history and perhaps some miscellaneous ramblings that might crop up while I'm waiting for something else to do in the garden.
