Well, well, well....

Things are turning great here on Spring Peeper Farm

It's been a strange spring.

Not particularly warm or cold.

Evenings are still cold.

And wind.

Lots and lots of wind!

I've planted almost all the seeds except the ones

that are cold sensitive.

But  the tomato plants I started in the basement

are pathetic.

Wow. I won't even post a picture of them.

Sad, sad, sad.

I hope they make it through the 

season.

The pepper plants didn't look good at the beginning, 

so even though some died,  the ones that

survived are looking good....so far.

If there is one thing that lifts my spirits on a sad day

is cut flowers.  I just need to buy a small bouquet

of cut flowers and my day is made.

Well since Covid, cut  flowers are harder to

find than sanitizer!

Today we were in Yarmouth and I found some!

I was on cloud nine.  We also

went a had a visit at Ouest-ville Perennials. 

Yikes!  Let's just say I'm broke.

But my gardens are going to be beautiful!

Alice, owner of Ouestville has  the best plants.

Very hardy. They never die! 

What more can a gardener ask for!

I also  stopped and picked up our tub of worms.

Waste-check had worms for vermiculture for us.

It's for where I work. We are going to let

the wormies eat our compost and make poop.

Isn't nature grand.

Mr. and Mrs Duckworth finally had ducklings!!

She showed up last week with (what we think is)

13 ducklings!!

That's quite the brood.   They are so cute.

Well things can't always go well.

Dave had started my cold cellar.

He just wanted to move the water pump a few feet so

I could have more room.

I won't go into details (because I don't know the details)

but we had to dig up the well, which we had

no clue where it was, and put a pump in the

well.  Chaching! Now we're broke.

It was going to happen eventually. It was just a matter

of time.  At least it happened now and not

in the winter when the ground is frozen.

So now, hopefully we won't be bothered with the pump 

or well for 20+ years.

But at least we know where our well is now.

About 2 feet from the herb garden. Phew.

That was close.

Have a Blessed Day.
