Note from Rachel 03.04.2025:

So good to see all of you this morning!

Per our discussion, I have launched a new website, Facebook page, and Next Door page for the book business. The links are below. For Tami and anyone else, I would appreciate honest feedback, particularly on the website (language, images, etc.). No matter how little or seemingly nitpicky. While I've done some editing on it (and here is still more I want to do), I didn't design it and am not emotionally attached to it, so you won't hurt my feelings AT ALL with anything you might say. I want the website to be simple, clear, straightforward, as well as something that builds trust with viewers and demonstrates a love for people and the community.    

​

• Website: https://pickupmyoldbooks.com/

• Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/PickUpMyOldBooks/

• Next Door: I have a page under the name Pick Up My Old Books, but can't seem to find the direct link for it. I'll try to figure that out. 

​

And here is a list of things I'm working on outdoors.

A load of compost was delivered this morning, which now means I can begin fertilizing the existing trees and planting the trees, bushes, and veggies that are in my entryway. Lots to do! ☺️

Farm Tasks

• weeding the mound and around the fruit trees

• putting compost and additional mulch around already weeded fruit trees and berry bushes

• filling rock bags and putting down tarps

• digging holes for new fruit trees and planting trees

• helping put up new arched trellises

• installing a raspberry bed

• sifting wood chips

• picking up piles of grass and sticks and taking them to the woods

• cutting down weeds/brush along the edge of the hill

• removing bricks from the woods and stacking them behind the garage

Much love and gratefulness for all of you!
