Which do you guys prefer? Are you a raised bed kind of person or are you more traditional and till a garden space and plant in the ground? I have don’t both and love both but the past two years I have really appreciated the organization of raised beds. Plus it keeps the wildlife out for the most part and I don’t seem to have as many bug issues. What are some tips and tricks y’all have for gardening and controlling bugs from taking over your crops?

What are some of ya’lls favorite Spring and Summertime recipes? Drinks? Snacks? Deserts? Crockpot? Any traditions during the Spring and Summer ya’ll don’t mind sharing?

So, we are fairly new to the whole farming and raising animals life. We absolutely love it and are eager to learn everything we can...but would like some thoughts/advice on using an egg incubator to hatch chicken and ducks. We got a small incubator that does 8 eggs....but have had issues already, 4-5days in. Our thermostat was set on 38*C per the instructions and for the first 4-5 days it was doing great. Then when we checked on it on the morning of day 5 the temp was 22*C and would not go up. Water in the tray was full but the temp was cold. No idea what happened. Any tips? Best incubator to use? Just a thought....
