Oh Chassy, Chassy (my nephews call me Aunt Chassy… be still my heart) How does your garden grow?
It’s finally getting green and growing well. Rhubarb is GORGEOUS! Completely full and green. Just beautiful!
Strawberry blooms are abundant. Sadly, weeds are abundant as well. It’s a task keeping this garden growing, but a delightful task it is.
Garlic!
Success!
I have planted garlic for many years now… planting in the spring.
Failures each time.
This time I planted in the fall and look how tall and happy it is! I am looking forward to a big harvest this summer! If I can give a tip… PLANT GARLIC IN THE FALL!!
My onions are popping up and standing straight. I’m happy to see them, because this bunch can go through a lot of onions!
I pruned our grapevine within an inch of it’s life, I was worried that I did too much. Thankfully, I have a lot of beautiful leaves that are sprouting out. I am hoping for a great grape harvest. Our supply of grape juice has almost been depleted.
This is our apple tree. I so want an apple harvest this year. Even if it’s a small one. Our trees are still really young, but we should be able to get a few pounds this year from each tree.
Oh that every child would be so blessed to have an Aunt Chassy!
Your basket/quilt is just the thing! How sweet.
It is no wonder that your beautiful homestead makes you happy. I feel happy for you going on a virtual 'tour'.
Your are looking well. Congrats on progressing towards your goal. You're always beautiful, no matter.
Thanks for the fitting word regarding the snow. Not one to complain about the weather, I have been tempted!
Blessings to you and yours,
Jen
Thanks, Jen! 🙂 I love my nieces and nephews!
I'm glad it's making you smile. That makes things even cherrier (It's a word, right?) 😉
Thanks… my goal is SLOW going!
Warmly,
Chas
