I was reminded over the weekend not to overlook the beauty that surrounds me in the present because I am so obsessed at peeking over the fence at what I hope the future holds…
So right now the beauty that surrounds me is the coming of Spring in the Willamette Valley. The lush green grass is beginning to push through muddy ground, the chickens are laying again (thank da lawd, cause I was about to go on a mass butchering spree!) and the weather is turning from still and cold to blustery with hints of spring tinged warmth. I feel the exhilaration in the air. Birds are chirping with the song of expectation, the neighbor’s guinea hog had a litter of piglets and my first little sprouts have emerged from their warm soil in the cold frame.
Mizuna, Spinach, Lacinato Kale and lettuce mix, making their spring debut!

- 5 eggs a day! Hallelujah!
- The Levenwick Cardigan
The last picture is of the cardigan I finished for a friend. The profit will go directly to my Future Farm Fund! Yay! Every dime, dollar and penny brings us closer
