This is February in Western NY right?
We have had such a mild winter this year. Where has all the snow been?
Oh, I know it's only February...careful what you wish for and all that jazz but...we're a hearty lot in WNY. We look forward to the snow which means lots of skiing, snowboarding, snowshoeing and bundling up in front of the fireplace with our loved ones and a mug of hot cocoa.
As if we need a reason to cuddle up and do nothing but relax and enjoy our families.
This year has been different. It has given me a chance to get to know our property though - to look at the existing beds and decide what needs changed. This will be a very busy Spring and Summer. We plan on building the year- round greenhouses by hand using reclaimed wood. In fact, most of our summer projects will be focused on finding the most efficient and eco- friendly options around. Raised beds...orchard started as well as continued work on the soap barn.
By no means does this mean it is the best or only way to do things. We're just a suburban family who decided to start a farm. From the ground up. The only way we know how - through trial and error. ok - mostly error:)
And that's the fun part! I get to share that journey with you. We'll share some of the triumphs and loads of disasters too! To make you laugh and sometimes shake your head at us.
I'll share products, sales and information. And I invite you to share your ideas as well. After all, the most important part of this is the sharing!
Peace, Love & Harmony,
Nicole
