We have been away for a while and home with family. Steve's Dad and Vivian were here from Ontario and we had an awesome visit and it was nice to finally show them our home and our farm in person. We have been just doing upkeep around here. Weeding is an everyday chore wit the sun rain sun rain chain , they are growing like crazy. Our ground cherries are finally becoming ripe and we have been enjoying tomatoes and beans for a while. The beans are very tasty and are an extra special treat after they were almost wiped out by bugs.
We had our dog Furgus at a friends house while we vacationed and he loves being there so we let him stay for a couple of weeks. It was time to get him back though, as we started seeing deer scat in the woods close to our house.
It continues to be hot everyday and the sun seems so strong this year. It has been good for some plants and terrible for others. I guess that is what farming is about and we are rolling with the punches. Hopefully we can get enough produce ready at the same time so we can go to a farmers market and actually sell some of this yummy stuff. Although eating it ourselves is not hard to take. Hope everyone is having a good summer.

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