Starter Fire

Getting ready for cold weather.

Best Harvest in Years

Already this year I've had the best harvest in several years. It's the cage, because the deer are huge and the squirrels are around as well. In spite of a very late start (end of June) other things that helped were:

I planted the day I bought them. 

It rained a lot for the first few weeks. 

We've had breaks in the heat so fruit can set. 

If I got no more for the rest of the summer I'm pleased. 

Spring for Real

I done remember this tree being quite so vivid before. The dogwood by the front door is also blooming, for the first time ever. 

Finally Spring

We had a glorious good weekend, and I had time to be out there. I cleaned up the  outside corner and the front yard. Small bites. 

I saw bloodroot up- I think this is really late.
