Come walk with me...

The little barn |
Yesterday was a perfect farm day--the forecast, sunny but cool with light winds--meant that I could work all day without bumping up against strong winds and too much heat. Taking advantage of the extra time I took a long walk around the farm with Gracie, the fat cat, and my camera.

Now I realize this is not a "gorgeous" farm shot, but I wanted to show you the potential. The multicolored little green sprouts are many of the annual varieties you love--snap dragons, matricaria, Queen Anne's lace, nigella and so on. The yellow-green rows at the top of the photo are grasses and to the top left of the photo are some of the perennials--delphinium, ascelepias, monarda and yarrow. The last row on the far right is a future crop of helebores. I will take photographs of these fields each week so you too can witness the progress.
Every day we are harvesting new varieties of perennials--we are updating the availability list each day! At the moment we have:
