Spring returns to the hill

The red-wing blackbirds are chasing each other around the fence rows, the sweet smell of fresh-cut hay is in the air, and we’re happy to be outdoors again after a long, long winter.

 

We’re busier than ever keeping up with a lawn that grows inches overnight and picking up after trees that produce and drop an endless supply of twigs.

 

Despite all the work, it’s a joy to sit and watch the redbuds bloom and the red-headed woodpeckers chip away at the old light post out front.

 

And it’s a delight to be telling you about it again. Amid the farm chores, we’ll do our best to update you more often.
