In the Begining

Hello folks,

Name is Eric Rovegno. Let me start out with a little introduction into my family. There is my wife Dorene, daughter Angelica, and our new baby boy Derrick. This is the very first home we have ever owned and possibly ever will own. We bought it less then a year ago for the property. Not with the intention to grow any crops, but I can honestly say that once we moved in and I started playing with the tractor and driving around the lot back behind our home, I found myself feeling good about the day. This is what triggered the farm bug.

So we started growing some corn last year in a small spot in our backyard. It grew and was pretty darn tasty when we did pick it. The only problem was that it could have used an additional month of growth. This year we are prepared, I hope! I have purchased a greenhouse and some jiffy pellets, along with some pots. We got some seeds for Sweetcorn, Pueblo Chilies, Zucchini, Yellow Squash, Mixed colored Bell Peppers, and some Pumpkins. I know it sounds like a lot and it probably is, but it will give me a chance to decide on which will bring in the most bang for the buck and provide a little extra income for us.

So, stay tuned and subscribe to our blog and find out what is going to happen next.

Thank you for visiting and see you soon,
Eric Rovegno
