Beaver Moon Rising Over Biden Farm

It’s an incredible view when the Beaver Moon Rises Over Briden Farm. Honestly, it a beautiful sight when any moon rises! Tonight it’s late November and the Moon looms large in the sky. Sadly, I’m yet to see a photo that can capture it like the human eye or instil the emotions of seeing the moon rise through the top of the hardwoods as you stand hearing the West Branch of Bear River raging below! It’s incredible! It’s also just one more reason to visit Briden Farm, Bear River, Nova Scotia.

Home Fried Potatoes, Wild Field Mushrooms, and Steaks

it’s so nice when we reap the bounty of our hard work. The Potatoes are those we grew in Clementsport before moving here to start Briden Farm. The Wild Field Mushrooms were gathered by a friend and I this summer on his Farm. The Steak was from a Bull that attacked a friend on his farm, where I helped out this summer. Of course the whole thing was made using Watkins Products! Things like Watkins Pepper, Garlic Powder, Sea Salt, and other herbs and spices also from Watkins. We love their products.

Her eggs are getting bigger, and are nearly as big as a Large White Store Bought Egg! You can see by the picture that the eggs are getting bigger too! My guess is she’ll be laying Jumbos before long!
