BW series: Memories of winter

Winter stillness carries within it the seeds of a prodigal spring.

BW series: Sun and candlelight

I love thee to the level of every day's
Most quiet need, by sun and candle-light.

Springtime blooming

The radish bed is dotted with tiny plants, so fingers crossed we're going to have a bumper crop of radishes soon. On the other raised bed, onions, leeks and kale have sprouted. The pots are dotted with tiny carrots, spinach and chard -- and at last the fennel has put out little shoots.

It's still early spring but the days are finally, finally warm enough to turn the heat off and keep doors open. Lovely days are ahead.
