Winter in the apple orchard

The apple orchard is next to our picnic area and garden, the garden is full of garlic right now, I can't wait to see it in July! Samuels compost is on top of it all, and it is so rich--I have never seen a squash plant as big as ours this summer. There was so much squash that we froze some for zucchinie breads and things, plus we had enough for fresh eating all summer.

Local view of the hills

This is what most of the hills around here look like right now. It has been a tricky year for hay. It seems like everyday has been a mix of beautiful sun with a shower or two. This hay is my sister and brother in laws. They sure have a pretty view. I think it's Pennsylvania actually, you can see a long way from the top of the hills around here!

Country Paradise

Take a walk with me at Small Graces,
it's night, and the moon is shining. You can smell the roses by the gate,
it's so bright you don't need a flashlight, and everywhere you look there are fireflies. It's cool, for a July evening, and it just rained, the ground is a little misty and the tiny frogs are peeping softly in the woods. The creek is gently trickling and the breeze is a soft breath through the trees. A new lamb is baaing by the barn, you are home.

Historic sheep breed on our farm!

Appleblossom is a Hog Island Ewe. Listed as critical by the American Livestock Breeds Conservancy. She is now an official member of the farm, look for more posts about Appleblossom as we go into the fall and
spring. She is going to meet a hog Island ram, and hopefully by April we will have lamb photos!!
