Wild Fruits - planting season at the urban homestead

It is a grand fact that you cannot make the fairer fruits or parts of fruits matters of commerce; that is, you cannot buy the highest use and enjoyment of them.
You cannot buy that pleasure which it yields to him who truly plucks it.

those are the neatest raised beds I have ever seen. the tree out front is so beautiful. what a change from the mud and snow! your flowers are so nice and great color for your little house.
wish I was there to share the nice, warm, Alaskan weather.
