TGIS (Thank Goodness it's Spring)

Leola’s trees have green buds that look like a rogue artist with a stippling brush painted them when we weren’t looking. The grass is growing clump-by-clump as it does so early on—one clump of exceedingly emerald green grass here, another further over that way, and soon they’ll spread like a wild grass-fire. Our friends, the birds, are back, too, with their Spring sing-a-long song reminders that we, the people, aren’t the only creative ones with something to say. Every Spring is a gift as the days lengthen, nights shorten, and lives awaken for seasonal renewal.

We’re thankful for this. What this also means is our gracious Mother Earth spins on, central Sun burns and radiates warmer to hot, and our lunar lady Moon-friend still guides from her changeable nightly post. Thanks to the planets staying in motion and Nature at least edging on predictable, we are now in alignment for our next CSA season. Rise on, Spring. Rise on.

We hope you’re as excited as we are about the upcoming shares! The pictures below are from Sara's recent visit with Eli at Elm Tree Organics. The impressive greenhouse is a new addition for Eli and family.
