Signs of Spring

Spring has been taking its sweet time here in southern Vermont, keeping the day and nighttime temperatures low-- but we've had some nice runs of sunny days to keep our hopes up... Crocus pocus-- color splash. GPF homegrown garlic starting to make its way up through the mulch. Notice the snow still up high... Alien rhubarb nodes unfurl. Realism: Smiles and lots of layers up top...
Optimism: fifty degrees is all it takes for me!


Things are looking good: the soil is drying out nicely, the yarrow is starting to unwind itself up to the sun, and CSA memberships are almost full for the summer. If you haven't signed up yet-- be sure to send in your registration before April 15th for the discounted rate! Cheers!
