Can't wait to see some chickens moving into their new home, I hope they'll love it there and lay you loads of eggs.
Are those peas harvested this year already? That's very early 😃

You and me both! Turns out it is not so easy to get an unvaccinated chicken within the EU. New regulations apparently. Trouble is, we want our chickens to be 100% natural, without any pharmaceutical products in their blood! So we are seeking suppliers who are willing to break the rules for us...
They are. We plant them in Oct/Nov and harvest now, through to the end of May. They don't mind freezing temperatures while they grow but they do mind snow, which must be shaken off their leaves. Dwarf peas (which don't need supports) are a different story and should be planted in March/April.
Plus, ours also have electroculture, which helps them start flowering early :)
