2021 Margali's Garden

@baymule we did and they rejected it. The truss was manufacturing defect. It had a big knot in the wood which cracked.

I guess they think somebody is going to be stupid enough to pay their asking price. It’s a seller’s market, but not for high priced fixer uppers.

some people won't care or will be able to fix those for less, so they may get a better offer than 60k off. good luck and keep looking.

i once avoided a fixer upper like that myself and i consider myself lucky they didn't take my offer.

Yesterday MIL mentioned they don' t have enough chickens to keep their ag exemption.

Leasing bees is qualified activity and only requires 6 hives... I could have my bee hives, they get a few $$ and their ag exemption...

Something will come along that is right for you. Keep looking!

DD's have yet Another hive in their house. They have been putting it off, but the guy that is fixing their back porch is a mason, and he Wants to tuck point pretty much the whole house, which is a 1920's brick.
That's how the bees are getting in.
Last time the bee guys were able to replace a hive that was lost in the winter with a very vigorous new one. Vigorous bc it had been living in a house!!!!

First harvest of blueberries. Decent handfull from one bush.

They didn't last long.

Got another bowl of blueberries yesterday. I also have an offer in on another parcel, 12.9 acres raw.

I hope this one works out for you.

Getting a small handful of berries every other day. I think the asparagus I started with dormant roots is growing. I'm not sure what the plant looks like.
