Greetings everyone~

I first want to thank all of you who came last year to fill your gardens with

the beautiful veggie plants that we grew and sold.

This year's plants are finally ready for sale and I've listed them all below.

I also have an abundance of Lamb's quarter plants. These have self seeded and

are the South American variety, which has a lovely pink center to the plants.

The leaves are what are eaten ~ more nutritionally packed than spinach. They

freeze great too.

There are many of us who have yet to have planted the fields and others that

have. For most of us who live west of Minneapolis the rain that came last week

has saturated the fields with close to 7 inches of rain falling within less than

3 days. Whatever planting was happening has come to a stop until the land

begins to dry out. Nature is at the forfront of what we all do and to live in

harmony with her each day is quite an humbling experience. This rain is quite

similar to what occurred the past 3 years and many a farmer/grower has been

challenged by it. Our continued support at farmer's markets and farms is so

very important. Lending our hands when we can to help with chores, weed,

harvest, purchase produce are all ways to share our appreciation to our

wonderful community of growers.

Foraging for wild foods keeps me centered and helps boost my optimism for the

future when I can get my seeds and plants in the ground. Already, mushrooms,

lambs quarters, wild leeks, nettles, dandelions to name a few have been

harvested and enjoyed these past 2 months. If you are interested in learning

more about wild harvesting, let me know. Classes will be up soon.

Enjoy the day!
