To the Moms, caregivers & guardians
of our precious children,
Happy Mother’s Day!
This was supposed to post at 4 this morning but I didn’t schedule it right. 😦
Snow in May
The storms made my snowball bush look like it actually has snow around it. That’s pretty neat looking for this time of year.
I hope you all are having good weather
and will have a chance to get outside and enjoy it.
1st Harvest – Blackberry Winter
May 3rd my husband harvested our first crop. It was a lovley mess of radishes. My husband says they’re really good. I’m not a radish eater, but I like growing them as companion planting to help deter pests.
I re-potted my bell peppers. 59 have survived so far. However, I don’t know how much longer they’re going to last with no sunshine…
We’re in the throws of Blackberry winter. It’s quite cool and storms are fequent visitors.
The dewberries and blackberries are blooming pretty though.
My peonies were blooming happy & beautifully
Now since it’s storming everyday not so much…
We lost 2 small trees during the storms. My husband had to buy a chainsaw to clear them out of the yard. Hopefully the storms are finished with us for awhile and Blackberry winter will be over soon. Perhaps we can soon get back to the business of enjoying sunshine once again.
Wishing you all a pleasant rest of the week!

Wishing you all a wonderful Wednesday!
Oh my Deer Garden
We had to add some shiny stuff to our garden.
The other night a deer paid a visit to our garden and bit off one of our Mr Stripey tomato plants (and left it’s hoof prints as evidence)Â 
and then the deer pulled our other Mr. Stripey tomato plant completely out of the ground. Fortunately the deer didn’t bother the other tomato plants or visit the chard rows. We put up a few pans and pin wheels. Hopefully they’ll deter the deer for awhile.
Wishing you all a beautiful week!
Happy Gardening!
