May be headed for freezing temps outside this week but these seed starts won’t feel the cold.

The aphid deterrers (giant marigolds) are sprouting right on time. Tomato, pepper and melon starts aren’t far behind.

Stay warm y’all and make the week count!

Received this from Ms. Arlene in Virginia this past week.

It’s a perfect addition to this ole farm, had to hang it in the front hallway.

Thanks so much!

Here’s the text of it:

Originally penned in 1915 (3 years before this home was built) by Frank I. Mann, a corn farmer in Illinois.

THE FARMER’S CREED

I believe a man’s greatest possession is his dignity and that no calling bestows this more abundantly than farming.

I believe hard work and honest sweat are the building blocks of a person’s character.

I believe that farmers, despite its hardships and disappointments is the most honest and honorable way a man can spend his days on earth.

I believe my children are learning values that will last a lifetime and can be earned no other way.

I believe farming provides education for life and that no other occupation teaches so much about birth, growth and maturity in such a variety of ways.

I believe many of the best things in life are indeed free: the splendor of a sunrise, the rapture of wide open spaces, and the exhilarating sight of your land greening each spring.

I believe true happiness comes in watching your crops ripen in the filed, your children grow tall in the sun, and your whole family feel the pride that springs from their shared experience.

I believe that by my toil I am giving more to the world than I am taking from it, an honor that does not come to all men.

I believe my life will be measured ultimately by what I have done for my fellow man, and by this standard I fear no judgment.

I believe when a man grows old and sums up his days, he should be able to stand tall and feel pride in the life he’s lived.

I believe in farming because it makes all this possible.

Here's a random change up to your current negative FB newsfeed...

Take a second and call the closest family member to you and simply tell them that you love them. No reason, just because.

You won't regret it.

When you see it…

Wanted to share this screenshot sent to me by a viewer (Rob W.) this morning in the comments from the 3:11 mark in today’s video “Diffusers”

Most folks may dismiss it due to the pareidolia phenomenon, that’s fine.

Faith on this old place has never waivered.  I know the good Lord watches over us. For me, this was an incredible Godwink in the trees.
