Fun With James Farmer
Last week our good friend, James Farmer came to stay and stroll around the farm. Here are some highlights from his visit, tips, and even a way to get his fantastic book and six of his favorite herb plants!
April Showers
Despite the poor Monday weather, Saturday was as beautiful as a spring day should be. I took this photo of our dwarf peach orchard in full bloom.
Our New Garden

First Seedlings Up
Finally I can begin to report on plant progress, not just winter preparations. Growing now, we have most of what we need for a salad.
