Fall has arrived in
thunderstorms, flurries of yellow leaves, and adventures in parenting. My
eldest is starting kindergarten, and he's now successfully and dutifully taking
the bus each morning and returning mid afternoon like children have been doing
for ages.
September has always seemed
more like the beginning of a year than January ever did. With a larder filled
with caning and a root cellar full of apples, and squashes and potatoes.
Children go off to school and one settles in for semi hibernation of
chill breezes, dank drafts, slippers, sweaters and indoors.
However amidst the bedding down for the long winter's nap we
cannot lose sight of spring. As Audrey
Hepburn once said - "To plant a garden is to believe in
tomorrow." and with that in mind I
would like to share with the few folks out in blog land who read my posts, that
seed packets have been painted, proofs have been approved, and seed has been
sourced. In time for Christmas I will be
offering a line of seed packets, these will have seed collected in 2016 and be
fresh for the 2017 planting season.
These have been a long time coming and I'm quite excited by the news!
