Yesterday we heard a Bob White Quail on the farm for the first time. Today we found it in my propagation tunnel. It was not shy at all, the kids and I were ten feet away when we saw it. One of God's beautiful creatures, what a blessing.

Yellow squash is in season and that means squash casserole at my house. We sautéed fresh onions garlic squash and River's Ridge Farms Mushrooms incredible mushrooms. Added it to a dish with a few other ingredients. 20 minutes in the over and the kids love it! If you want a large order message me and I can have it ready at the Ooltewah Farmers Market or at the farm stand.
