FSO - Local crops and produce

So what are the local crops and produce where I live?  It's just as well that we grow something other than grass here on the farm, as I haven't given the topic a thought all week.  It's that crazy busy time at work and my brain shuts down (from over-use) the minute I leave.  My doctor made a comment that amused me on Tuesday.  He said if I'd stopped work at the same time I'd given up smoking I'd be in better shape now.  I think he may have been trying to tell me it's time to quit. 

On the farm my son grows maize and turnips to feed to the cows.

Maize:

 Turnips:

Georgia, even now as a nearly 10 year old, still calls them turn ups.  She started calling them that when she was three or four years old.  She's as stubborn as a mule, no way can anyone convince her she is wrong and that they aren't turn ups.

That's my lot for this week.

I'm sure the rest of the team will have crops and produce that are a lot more inspiring.  They will be here.

FSO - Bring on the Green

Let's just sit a while and soak up the green.  We will be joined soon by the rest of the FSO team, probably after they have posted their interpretation of "Bring on the Green" here.

 

When these bottles, which by happy co-incidence happen to be green, are recycled to hold passionfruit wine, we can soak up some of that, too.  (Not for the faint-hearted, so be warned.)

 

Or maybe we should wait till after dark and relax under a green light (even if it's white).

Or we could take a trip to a little green bridge.  This is New Zealand's oldest bridge, obviously no longer in use.  I don't know if the fence is to keep the bowlers on their green or others out. 

Or we could stroll around the farm to look at the green crops.

We don't have any little green rest-rooms on the farm.

But I do have a green water tank - lacking in character, though.

And if it's all too much we can recharge our batteries.
