finally emerging from our winter malaise













While we are still in the middle of a possible blizzard, Bryan and I have begun to turn our thoughts toward spring. Temperatures in the low 30's over the last two weeks felt like a glorious heat wave. Even the chickens remerged from their coop and could be seen playing in the snow. Our heads are filled with seed orders and garden plans. Now we just have to wait out the next two months. We did finally hang our vertical cherry tomatoes in the windows. They will have to be hand pollinated, but at this point I'd sell my soul for a garden fresh tomato.













As we sit in the house, watching the snow fall outside the window, our farm designs spin rapidly out of control. Spring will be so wonderful, if it ever arrives.
