Pearson's Town has been increasing our outreach work. . . Windham Junior High's Green-Team has decided to take a go at a small scale winter garden. We are modifying their raised beds into mini high tunnels. Yesterday we planted garlic, lettuce, spinach, carrots and beets. The placement of the beds is a little off for winter sunlight, but I feel that we can make a good go at it.
Last week we welcomed a class from Westbrook High School. They found the experience of being outdoors and connecting with nature and food so beneficial that we have agreed on a weekly visit until old man winter tells us that the weather is just to . . . uninviting.



Our old pal Buster is a little grumpy. He has been separated from his lady friends for the month in preparation for the mating season. We are crossing our fingers for a plentiful, and late, lambing in the spring.
So that about covers it for today. . . back to moving hay around. . . .
