Our plant sale will start on May 17th and continue through early June. The greenhouse is a busy place with seeds being carefully planted  to be ready for the plant sale and garden.

The wood stove is loaded full of wood in the early evening and again before bed. It keeps it toasty inside even on a cool spring night.

The lambs are growing fast. They like to race around the barn yard. They will be let out to play on the hill in a couple of weeks. We are waiting for the grass to grow before opening the gate to the pasture for the day.

Chickens have arrived as well and  soon we will have eggs. Spring is a busy time as we get ready for the start of the season. May 17th will be here before you know it!!

We have opened up the greenhouse and have started planting. Seeds are coming to life.  The first signs of life are emerging.  A few hours a day inside the greenhouse and you feel like summer is here. Out of the cold wind, it is another climate inside the plastic hoop house. Heated during the day by the power of the sun and at night by a large wood stove, lets  the seedlings grow fast and strong. 
Outside Gordon has planted spinach, lettuce and peas in the garden. The garlic is coming up.  Things are changing every day.
