Green on green on green on blue....feeling the summer energy making its way to us. Finally!

Garlic lovelies growing strong & pungent for all your covid distancing needs. #covidgarlic #socialdistancing #farmlife #valhalla

Ecological restoration workshop with the Somenos Marsh Wildlife Society today; planting black cottonwood stalks for riparian restoration along Somenos Creek. We planted 80 stalks today! Once these stalks grow into full fledge trees, they will not only help to hold up the embankment, they will also create an overhang canopy over the somenos waterway which will have a detrimental effect on the invasive plants in the area, specifically the yellow iris & Parrot's feather, an aquatic perennial that is known to out-compete and replace native aquatic vegetation with its dense stands. These stands also create pools of stagnant water, leading on an increase in mosquito breeding grounds. Ick! These societies & volunteers are doing vital work that will effect these delicate areas for future generations to enjoy. Hug a local volunteer! ..or maybe just give thanks until this Covid 19 issue subsides 🤓

Spring has sprung! It’s Snowdrop season at the farm, & we can’t stop taking photos of all the lovelies 🐶💕🌼🌝

The impressive results of a rouge head of garlic that made a roll for it during the curing process. Trying to grow no matter the conditions. We just found this beauty rooting at the edge of our concrete & gravel driveway, below where she was curing over the last few months. Mother Nature does not cease to impress! A serious “rose that grew from concrete” situation, & a happy reminder of the resilience that nature & our planet holds.
