Spring
The beautiful weather has given us a head start. Let's hope Jack Frost doesn't pay us a visit.

Turning a Corner



We think we may have turned a corner with the earwigs. I am sure everyone is tired of hearing about them and I am tired of talking about them. We have been so vigilant, taking away all of their daytime haunts, setting out yeast traps and clearing away any debris and rocks. Our use of row covers is over as apparently the earwigs used them for a party tent. The good news is that most things are coming back, the bad news is that everything is going to be delayed. It does give us confidence though, that an organic solution may take some time, but they do work and they are worth it. Everything we have saved will be worth the effort. 
Above are a picture of some lavender that was left by the previous owners and my peas, which have finally begun to flower. I can't wait for fresh peas. The kids love to eat them straight off the vine.
