Only a few days ago I looked around the garden and realized
for the first time since spring I’m not completely overwhelmed. The shorter days are taking care of
that and I’m glad for the dark evenings. We are slowly moving back inside our
house.This past summer was full of never ending sunny days and warm weather. The garden just explored with life and
keeping up with transplanting, harvesting and processing harvesting was a joyful
day to day challenge. I have to admit I was really happy to discover the last
five pounds of green tomatoes where rotten.This summer our cow, Fern, joined our farm with great celebration, it is
very difficult to even try to have an biodynamic farm or eat a Weston Price
diet without a cow. Mature coming
in for the compost pile is like solid gold around here. And our family is waiting for spring for
that arrival of baby calf and milk.
We also have some hair sheep so whoever has calves or lambs first will
be the first to be milked.
The following images are in no order of summer, just a collection of images that really reminded me of these past few months. |
