There's a Piggy in a Blanket (tarp) in there. Charlotte is tucked up in her heated and insulated pig cave. Henry is braving the cold outside.

Today is a good day to sort fibre for the wet felting workshop here at the farm next Saturday, November 30. The winter season is when I dust off my spinning wheel and felting materials and plan some new projects. It feels good today to pull out some of my fibre stash and get the inspiration started. There are 2 spots left in the felting workshop, sign up on my website, or at the link in the bio.

Filou is helping me to put tree guards on the fruit trees for winter. Not strictly part of his job description, but he is good at digging holes, finding rodents, and barking at deer.

Watching the world go by with this guy. Boris is on the mend, and best news of all, the large tumour that was removed is benign!!! Lots to be thankful for this Thanksgiving.

Surgery number 2 for this gentle giant. He is such a good boy at the vet. Boris had to have a tumour removed from his side today. He is now on indoor rest again for a couple of weeks. He is so stoic and calm, as well as being a very serious guardian dog. ❤️

I took a photo of this bird in the tree because I wasn't wearing my glasses and he looked like a blue blob! I think it is a night heron, but I will happily stand corrected. Furthermore, how lovely is that brilliant spot of sunlight?

This morning.
This year, my heart is heavy with the grief of the losses of a lifetime. It is time to feel those losses profoundly, and that is a good thing. There is no joy without sadness. I embrace the fall season with the cool, crisp mornings, the gold and purple fields, and the brilliant colors of the leaves. I look forward to the journey inward and the slowing down that is winter.
No marketing, no positive spin, only the real goods.

All you wanted to know, and probably more, about growing your own fruit. This Sunday at the farm, come and learn in a small group. The weather should be lovely for some exploration in the orchards. Delicious bakery goodies and herbal tea included.
