So far today, we've made homemade blueberry lemonade, chive blossoms vinegar (which will turn a beautiful purple and has a subtle onion-y taste that's great for dressings) and stewed rhubarb. How do you like your stewed rhubarb?

According to Native Orchid Conservation Inc, there are 37 species of native orchids in Manitoba! This includes various species like the Dragon's-mouth orchid, Grass-pink orchid, Fairy-slipper orchid, and Lady Slippers, like the ones pictured here. Lady Slippers are also known as Cypripedium parviflorum and typically blooms in late spring to mid-summer.

Hundreds of these grow around our acreage in Southern Manitoba. And we'll risk getting covered in ticks to get a close-up of these beauties 💛💚💛 ✌️

Happy Spring Equinox all 🤗 Certainly felt like Spring in southern MB. Sunny, warm. I even caught this sun halo this morning. A sun halo, also known as a 22° halo, is a ring of light around the sun caused by the refraction of sunlight by ice crystals in high-altitude, thin cirrus clouds. I was also doing some searches on the interweb today about the Spring Equinox and the difference between them and a Solstice. So, while solstices and equinoxes are related, they happen at different times of the year. Solstices are the longest and shortest days of the year, while equinoxes occur when the day and night are equally as long. Did you know that?

A cheap and inexpensive way to mark your garden rows 🌽🌶🫑🥒🥕🧅🍅

This is such a great idea to make with wooden spoons. Paint with whatever color you like, then add your lettering and plant name. Seal these well with a clear sealant, then stick in pots or your garden. (Rustoleum has a pretty durable, clear spray paint that will work.) From Playground Parkbench.
