Springing Spring

The beginning of a new season has earnestly begun here at Zephyros.  Whenever you look out and see the lambs bounding across the field, with hints of green peaking through the pastures laid flat from the weight of snow you know spring is here.  Now that the days are longer than the nights things are sure to take off as the plants always notice this occasion.  Evidence can be found in the perennials first as they begin to swell and send up new shoots awakened from their winter slumber.  Plants all over the farm begin to peak through the soil. 

We are busy planting seeds of things to come.  We planted our first peas and cut flower seeds last week right between a few days of brilliant sun and the return of winter.  We will try to do it again this week as the balance between spring and winter shift back and forth wildly. 

We have lots of great things planed here at the farm this year so stay tuned and check back for plant sales, farm dinners, and other special events.  If you are nearby and want to join our CSA sign up soon!

Happy Spring to all!
