Spring!

Spring is here, in a major way!!! The crabapple tree started blooming today.

The peach trees are *bonkers* with blooms, and the baby pear trees have a few too :)

And we have a *field* of violets!! They're more beautiful than I can capture with a camera.

Donna has begun some weeding and mulching...here she has used some waste wool. Yep, it makes great mulch!! And today we planted kale, collards, Brussel sprouts, Swiss chard, and more strawberry plants. It's way, *way* before put frost free date, but those are all cold tolerant. Let's hope spring is here to stay!
