It's a cold, windy, rainy day on the homestead. Here's what we're looking forward to: grapes, tomatoes, cucumbers, corn, eggplant, three varieties of squash, pumpkins, watermelon, green beans, green and red peppers, banana peppers, jalapenos, okra, red and white onion, potatoes and garlic. What am I forgetting? Here's to another fun season of planting, growing, learning and sharing the fruits of our (mostly John and Jess so far) labor! ~ Crystal

All in a spring day! ~ John
