Spring has sprung! There is evidence and excitement all over our yard . . .
Rhubarb (now in it's 3rd spring) is showing itself . . .
Swiss Chard, overwintered in cold frames are looking fabulous . . .
Strawberries are coming to life and have been thinned and strawed . . .
Hens (now almost one) are in the full swing of laying motion. Here is Pearl, our best layer.
The hens have been in trouble recently though for raking the nice straw in their nesting boxes, out with they big ole feet!! Silly hens.
This is probably Elizabeth, our medium sized Barred Rock.
The Rocks were very keen on investigating this camera business . . .
Garlic (4 varieties) planted in the fall is looking healthy! Can't wait!
Asparagus (3rd spring) is ready to start picking daily. A wonderful thing.
My honey bees are a-flyin' -- pictured here on a peach tree.
Both hives have made it through the winter.
One has symptoms of Nosema, so I've treated both hives with medicine. Both queens are laying, and there is fresh brood in both hives. We actually saw baby bees being born when we went in for the first time last week!
One of my dwarf peach trees in bloom.
A plum-cot tree in bloom. (plum & apricot combined)
