Hydrangeas will always have my heart.

We have really been enjoying observing all of the wildlife on our new farm property. It seems to be a place with a thriving ecosystem and we are so honored to be the next stewards of this special place. We have spotted several species of turtles and amphibians in the pond, white-tailed deer, black bears, and coyotes in the fields, and a plethora of birds and pollinators.

I love watching all of the birds, and I’m thrilled at how many species call our farm home. We have observed dozens of bluebirds (one of my favorites!), herons, woodpeckers, swallows, geese, orioles, phoebes, hummingbirds, wild turkeys, and dozens of other songbirds. I look forward to preserving and expanding their habitat on the farm, adding more native plants to support them. My heart is so happy!

Charles Darwin roses in all their peachy glory. We love this variety.

Roses have always been one of those crops I’ve struggled with, so I’m very thankful for this small bouquet I picked this morning. These are a variety called Charles Darwin, and I had to chuckle that out of all the varieties I’m trying to grow, these are the ones that are flourishing. Survival of the fittest indeed!
