It’s been a hopeful, lovely start to spring here in the Pacific Northwest. Nothing makes my heart sing more than seeing the tiny green leaves emerging on all of the deciduous trees turning the view out the window into a Monet painting. Our early daffodils are beginning to bloom and the beautiful, shiny black pussy willow trees ( Salix gracilistyle “Melanostachya”) we planted over 20 years ago are at their peak right now.
There has been a change in the wildlife action around the place, too. The birds are trilling and woodpeckers tapping as loud as they can on anything that makes noise and a few Starlings have been having a heated debate as they scope out holes in our old Alder trees. And don’t get me started on the rabbits. We caught this silly dance on the trail cam last month:
Sweet Peas need to be picked often or they will flower, decide they have done their job, and go to seed on you! I pick ours every two days and change out the flowers at our farm table on Goebel Hill Road accordingly.
If you would like to reserve large quantities of flowers for your special event please check out the details at this link and contact us soon! Additionally, we would love to host your summer wedding here at the farm right next to the flowers! Please contact us with your questions and more information.
