The summer solstice is just days away and the signs of the season are upon us!
The first of two lavender harvests are in motion, the lawn is lush, the garden is in, the baby is due any day and the hops are climbing high.
It has certainly been an eventful year for our household and the momentum looks to continue.
Ted did a fantastic job of pruning the hops on Friday, clearing some weeds in the area and giving them space to grow. We have had a great deal of moist weather in recent weeks, but our crops are less bothered by the inconvenience than we would have thought.
If baby bird holds off a few more days, we will head to a continuing education course offered by OSU Extension, right here in Bainbridge.
A friend recently commented that it must be wonderful to be following a dream. I have to smile now, as I did then, because it really is! Two years ago we had no idea we would be in a log cabin, starting a hop and lavender farm... Now we can't imagine anything else for our growing family.
Life is good ;)
Enjoy your week!
