Okay, we are going to give this blog thing a try again!
Ahh, spring! It’s
been such a long winter, and such a cool spring. But what a gorgeous day today! It’s May 1st,
the sun is out for the first time in 4 days, and it’s our first day open for
this season! What’s not to be happy
about?
Typically, our strawberry plants are bursting with ripe
fruit by now. However, Mother Nature had
a different idea this year. Yes, the strawberries will eventually
come. In farming, patience is
mandatory. Instant gratification isn’t
part of the equation. The rewards of
patience, however, are sweet (literally, in this case!). The plants are healthy and have lots of
blossoms. Now that the rain has stopped,
we need a lot of warm, sunny days to dry the fields and help the berries grow
and ripen.
We can’t wait to see what Mother Na ture (and a lot of hard work) bless us with this season!
