Today ended up much chillier than I anticipated, and with the drizzle, I wasn’t feeling too motivated to garden.
I took pictures instead (and attended a hands-on a bee class – post to come later)
My MIL worked tirelessly last weekend and this Saturday helping me clean up around the yard. Last weekend was the vegetable garden.
Yesterday was the back yard, weeding, raking, and general cleanup.

Finally got my garden gates back from the powder coater, just in time for my climbing rose to take off.
Next I took a tour outside the fence, trying to capture wildflowers
My garden helpers — These guys follow me around everywhere. The guineas are usually in 3s, but today she was off wandering.
Checking on some of the poultry …
And on to the orchard
