Our Lady's Windy Acres

Strawberry heaven and haying heck

There's something so deeply satisfying about picking your own strawberries, and knowing that your family is eating healthily!  I planted June-bearing plants last year, and dutifully picked off all the blossoms as I was told, so we were all excitedly waiting for the hopefully bountiful harvest - we weren't disappointed! I can't wait to make some jam!!!!

Now on the flip side of the coin, haying is another story. The weather just won't cooperate - we no sooner get the hay cut, dried on one side and flipped but that it rains and we're back at square one.  Add to that the fact that we do all this by hand and it becomes quite hard on the family. I pray the rain will hold off enough so we can get the hay in before it gets ruined!
