Jimmy has put on a nice Winter coat.
He will need it as we are below zero and will be single digit temperatures in the garden for at least the next week.
Extra straw for all my critters, to keep them nice and warm.

Icing Conditions
A layer of snow in the garden.
Whirligigs stopped with a coating of chilly ice.
On the workbench
The garden gloves will rest here until next year.
Seeds for sale!
Gardening has always been about sharing for me.
Sharing tips, tricks, plants and now offering my carefully saved seeds through my little Etsy store.

Costoluto Genovese is the Heirloom to grow for your sauces!
Intense flavor with a high acid content for canning.
Very heavy producer in my garden, even through the hot Summer days.
My plants are carefully started in the little greenhouse, then planted in my 100 % chemical free kitchen garden.
Pop into the store and take a look around!
Heavenly Scent
I trimmed some greens to use for some wreaths and decorations, and can’t help but be instantly in the holiday mood.
The smell from freshly cut evergreens….well that’s the most wonderful scent of the season.
I know….
they appreciate the touch!
Flame and Jimmy have been with us a full year now.
My little garden became complete with these two additions to the petting zoo!
Thankful
My pumpkin pie, though not perfect, made from the heirloom Sugar babies grown in the garden.
Happy Thanksgiving

Snow on the tree tops
A bright blue sky: a rare sight this month. So I bundled up to capture the sight out my back door.
Despite the wind, the trees can’t seem to shake off the frosting.
Shiver day
With the temperature reading 9 degrees in the garden, I took shelter in Rabbit Run Cottage.
A place to escape the breeze that burns your skin.
A few treasures still sitting out on the little table, I really should pack these up for the Winter.
I think I will give the little shed some winter touches. Maybe a pinecone garland, and a little wreath.
Seed Sorting
Counting and sorting saved seeds.
Putting in pretty packages for my little etsy store.
They will be listed by the weekend!
