Well, where do we start? Not at the beginning, but as of today! The beginning was quite a few years ago and another farm, another lifetime ago.
The great thing about farming in Canada, but especially the Okanagan, is the change in the seasons. Spring time brings a whole new start, a whole new chance to get things going again. There is always that feeling of excitement and anticipation of what the new year will bring.
This year on the farm we are starting off with more asparagus! New plantings in our beautiful sandy loam soil.
Our little JD tractor is just right for planting, it's just like using a ride-on mower, and purrs like a happy cat
This is the little antique planter mentioned in Jens blog, Tractors and Lipgloss. It looks really very decrepit, but looks can be deceiving, this little gem has lasted for decades and planted acres of asparagus in it's time. It is owned by some very good friends of ours at Frederick Farms just down the road.
