The Blackberries are looking good!
This is the Grant and Sarah Ferguson Blackberry Orchard. I planted all 400 in June 2022. The Blackberry Blossoms are now becoming blackberries. I am in the midst of laying down “drip” irrigation hoses to provide water. They love water ❤️. Hard work, persistence and positive attitude is what my parents and elders taught me! ❤️ Follow me on the journey through nature with tips and discoveries https://www.facebook.com/rjmccollough?mibextid=LQQJ4d #richardmccollough #rabj #roc #blackjournalists #blackfarmer #wholefoods #wegmans #westsidefarmersmarket #Democratandchronicle #mirusmedia

Every day is a good and beautiful day!
Every day, the skies at Weatherfield Farm are different. Today, a slow-moving low pressure system with cool air aloft and daytime heating from the sun caused rain in certain areas. These days remind me of Claude Monet's classic canvas works. ❤️ Follow me on the journey through nature with tips and discoveries https://www.facebook.com/rjmccollough?mibextid=LQQJ4d #richardmccollough #rabj #roc #blackjournalists #blackfarmer #wholefoods #wegmans #westsidefarmersmarket #Democratandchronicle #mirusmedia

it is such a pleasure working with cow manure these days. This manure is rich with all the good things necessary for life. #richardmccollough #rabj
We are all organic and natural at Weatherfield Farm. Always figuring out ways to use and learn from nature. These grass clippings will form a natural barrier and inhibit the growth of grass or weeds beside the rows of blackberries. #rabj #richardmccollough
The goal is to train Wild Grape vines around these tree branches. We make a delicious Wild Grape Leaf Herbal Tea. Etsy.com
