Spring flowers |

Some are planted... |

many grow wild... |

Beyond the trees ... our little garden....(Note the future Blue turkey home under construction) |
There is so much to do in spring time! All the bears are busy planning & planting. New pens to build, and old ones to refurbish. Soon there will be more chickens and blue turkeys to care for. And, finally the nights are staying above freezing! Wild asparagus should be popping up any day now. Yes, it is just a yummy as the stuff from the store, but it's free...and it doesn't get any fresher!
Of course our version of a traffic jam will be starting soon. If you go to last springs' posts, you will see some of the giant farm tractors that roll past the farm. They will be busy putting in corn & soy beans, while we will be planting veggies and fruit...and sun flowers for edible seeds. Straw Beary ordered in 100 strawberry plants...that will hopefully produce for years to come. We have grown some from seed in the past, but getting established roots of different varieties helps extend the harvest season and teaches us what grows best in our soil.
Hope your garden plans are growing well...Blu Bear
