Too Cold







We are in the middle of a cold snap that is too severe even to have protected seedlings out during the daytime. but we are determined to take advantage of the sunshine. behold the Maine Red Hot Dog.

Springtime Snow




we woke up to snow this morning and it has snowed off and on all day.
The playset was built by My Guy and Slick out of cedar trees from the garden clearing. if you look really really closely, you can see the raspberries and blackberries struggling miserably in the left-hand side of the pic.
The picture showing the wood shed also features our plum "orchard" of two trees. They are planted super close to each other to help with pollination. The far tree is a Kaga Plum and the closer is a Gracious Plum. Both are very pretty when they bloom!
