The Market is Open

I am again reminded of the wonders of nature as I am seeding and planting vegetables and flowers for the coming months of production. I love how magical it is to plant a seed and just a few days later watch it sprout up over the dirt to reach the sun. For me this is the best part. I feel that I have dabbled my hand with nature and brought this tiny seedling into the world. Corny right? I lived in a mid size town and we did not plant things in kindergarten. I did not grow up on a farm or planting gardens. I wish I had, maybe I would have figured out what I wanted to be when I grew up a little before I turned 40. If I had, maybe I would know how to keep rabbits and deer from eating all of my plants that I have taken so much care to plant, and just maybe I would know how to identify the part that I need when I go to the farm store to figure out my latest problem on the farm. We are still enjoying the process of learning here on our farm, and there is so much to learn. Thank you for your words of encouragement each week as we bring you local food.
See you on Friday,
Angela
