AND THE WINNER IS.....

And the winner is....

You are the lucky winner of a jar of PourAPie.  Loved your memory about your and your grandmother.  She must have been something special.  I'll drop off your jar next time I'm in Terre Haute. 

Farm Update:

Seedling room is going well.  Starting a new seeds now every week or so to help with the staggering of the planting this summer.  This gives up great produce all season long.

The greenhouse is FULL. I have plants on the ground even.  There has been a swarm of wasps who have decided to use squatters rights in there.  There are vicious little creatures.  I love the pollenating that bees do but dive bombong the landlord is not a good idea.  Had to resort to wasp and hornet spray.  Can't let the little future farmers get stung.

I have finished putting plastic on all the raised beds that we have ready.  I also lined the walkways.  Last year, we had to fight weeds to get through.  Not this year.  Pictures soon, I promise.  I will put red mulch down on all the pathways and around the greenhouse.  What I have done so far looks smashing. 

Putting sawdust around the blueberries is an all spring project.  The sawmill I get the sawdust from is open to all.  It is first come, first served, so you have to be quick to get it.  I can remember when the sawdust building was full and it was in the parking lot.  Oh  the economy.  Anyway, I have the rows closest to the homestead done and will now start the ones on the hill.  Sometimes, I just pray for rain.

The orchard is looking great.  We had to replace about 20 trees that were planted last year and didn't make it.  I think that is all we will plant is just replacements this year.  With the kids moving, it is hard to get it all done.  I have yet to put sawdust around all the trees in the young orchard, but hope to get it accomplished this summer as well. 

All for now, enjoy this fabulous weather.  Love to all

See ya on the farm
