We have been absent from social media for a while, but it's because we slow down (sorta) in the summer months, tackling projects that we don't have time to do during the main growing season. One of those projects is doing canning for our own family's benefit. This week is peach-a-palooza, thanks to incredibly sweet peaches from The Peach Truck! (Our trees are too young to produce the volume we eat.) We are busy canning sliced peaches, jam, jelly, and syrup, and I won't even confess how many slices of sourdough with peanut butter and peaches I have consumed this week. Soooo, how are you spending your summer months?

We are going to have a bumper crop of this year! Our vines are loaded with blooms and fruit. Because it has been so dry, pollinators are struggling. That means daily hand-pollination to ensure fruit set. Anybody know a good rain dance? 😉🥵

Miss Mamie has gone broody, so we are letting her do her thing. Not sure how this will work with our setup, but we are going to give her a chance to be a mother hen. 🐣

“Morning has broken…” 🎶 Starting your day with beauty in nature, even something as simple as noticing the vibrant color of a flower, helps wire your brain for a more relaxed, productive day. What nature did you notice today?
