Thank you for your support!

​This little bamboo trellis is one of my favorites to observe growing and thriving. Jon has created several of them with varying combinations of plants. This one contains sunflower, squash, romaine, cucumber, bush beans, borage, corn, wheat (transplanted from our son's school project from 2020) and clover. A little experiment that's working out!

​One of my favorite things to do on a Sunday morning is walk the yard, visit the bunnies & chickens and have a sip of coffee. Just take it all in.

​One of the 13 (yah, I said it...thirteen!) items in the CSA share deliveries today, is zucchini and everyone is always looking for something to make (other than delicious bread, that is). Combined with the Walla Walla sweet onion you'll receive.... Gotta give this one a try!

1 Tbsp butter
1 med onion, sliced
2 Tbsp apple cider vinegar
2 Tbsp honey
1 Tbsp prepared mustard

1 Tbsp salt
1 C bread crumbs
½ C parmesan cheese
1 Tbsp Italian herbs
