Bloomsday Babs

I’ll keep their location a secret so they won’t get cut or dug up.” Ladyslippers are like morels. We keep ’em in our Wildgoods Protection Program. I’ll give you a […]

I haven’t had […]

April showers are coming in June this year
June 8, 2008
Nothing about our weather seems ordinary this year. It was too cold in May – far too cold for the orchards – and it was a dry spring. Now, in June, we’re getting the rain. I’m glad for it, but it took Babs Young to make it beautiful. (Click on the photo to see a […]
