Recipe for Sunny Salad

Dear Farm Friends,
 
The earthy brown colors are slowly awakening to shades of green. Sunshine and rain are inviting new growth. Our garlic has poked through the ground and the layers of leaf mulch. We started pruning our apples trees and have six of the 80 fruit trees done. The songbirds are cheerfully singing and building their nests. The white swans and sandhill cranes are landing in our neighbor’s farm fields where the swollen riverbanks are a refuge for migrating birds. The robins are chirping, and their keen eyes are spotting the tiny end of a worm as it pokes out of the soil. The snowdrops are in full bloom and our daffodils and hyacinth almost ready to show their bloom.

Yes, spring is here full of color and life.

Your Farmer,
Caryl
