Seriously expecting Medieval Style Retribution on plant eating bugs this spring, a meditation on fruit tree pruning, and other observations this week.

Fun with Paulownia and rainy day reveals this week on The Vineyard Wife:

Do you ever get that overwhelmed feeling? What can one person do? This spring, I’m adding 6 fruit trees and multiple fruit shrubs in effort... vox.com/platform/amp/e…

Do you want to see the VineyardWife at domestic chores? Of course you do not..I do not..I’d rather be chewing on evergreen needles or digging in clay...and yet, here we are! So please enjoy these few sparks of VineyardWife essence amid these mundane Townie domestic tasks:

Progress on completing last year’s projects, an interesting vineyard find, and a new leather apron are featured this week.

New feeder friend nets cake. Hardscaping more clay than I can stand leads to temporary water drainage solution. My BiL and SiL lead me on an adventure in our North woods. All this and more in this week’s VineyardWife post!

My St. Patrick’s weekend was light of photos and largely light of heart, too. How could it not, when spring is just around the corner?

A Girl and her Peach Tree, blooming. Enough pictures of flowers, Pie Patio, dirt, and greens to make you feel as if you smell of dirt, by proxy! 😉☺️😘 It’s two weeks of The VineyardWife’s adventures!

Turns out the Garden is on time, this season. Here is a throw-back to last year. Similar, yeh? Comforting? I think so. facebook.com/story.php?stor…

Chesapeake Oyster Stew with Wild Edibles and Violets. Second year of working with chickweed, wild onion, bitter cress and edible flowers. Could become a tradition. Next goal: cook over an open fire and serve dinner in the Garden.

I have two stories for you, this week! The first story is a story of blossoms—Spring is starting to riot all over the Garden. Here is what I enjoyed on Saturday...

The second story this week is set into the future, with Saturday’s photos serving as memory...

I am supposed to be cooking dinner and helping Thor pack for Austria, but here I am, devouring the Pattern Language of Forest Gardens from my latest passion, the Edible Forest Garden, Volume 2. Must...put...this...down...

Slow roll Saturday meanders into no roll Sunday. My adventures, such as they are...

Saturday was a day for gathering, wondering, and assessing.

Somethings were done on Sunday...somethings are gonna need to wait for Mon-YAY.

As she said this she looked down at her hands, and was surprised to see that she had put on one of the Rabbit's little white kid gloves
