Spring 2018

Someday Spring will arrive. Today (3/22/18) is seems like old man winter is on his last gasp for the year. A rain and snow mix feel on the farm, only briefly. It didn’t not frost overnight even thought it was a clear night. Has the last frosty night come and gone?

My internal almanac hopes so.

Some food, the cold hardy stuff, is already in the ground; but I would love to get the grass seed going. We have some places to improve the pastures to provide more forage.

I did get some fencing up to create some paddocks and hay fields. We also got 14 apple trees in the ground (Thank You Lori Brakken) as part of the permaculture forest farm project. This fall I hope to get some replacement Chestnut trees in the ground.
