spring life on This Little Farm

Who doesn't awaken from a long wet winter into a week of lovely sunshine and spring weather, welcoming back bare feet, wearing just a t-shirt and soaking up every bit of vitamin D that these lovely days have to offer?
Weather like this also always sends the farmer's back into full force work mode....so much to be done!! Lists that have grown steadily all winter long can now again be ticked off one by one. All the new ideas and inspirations can now be put into reality!! I think that most farmer's will agree with me on this one....Spring is our most favorite time of year!!

Not only do the flowers and vegetables return to life, but also those dreaded weeds. But as a farmer concerned for the health of our family and 

community, we have decided to the stick with the old fashioned and best way to get rid if them. Our hands make a lot of hours doing this task, but eating these vegetables tastes that much better, nowing how hard we have worked for it.

Here we are picking up all the huge grass clumps we pulled out.
