Never ending winter
I am so hopeful that I will be able to get into my gardens soon. I have started seeds in the house for the first time in years. I wanted to get a jump start this year and now it's turned into the longest weather ever.
I usually plant pumpkins, watermelons, tomatoes, peppers and green beans. Because I'm participating in the Farmer's market this year I hope to have some produce to share with folks.
I am also working on making my scrubs and hair rinses from all natural products.
I have also made up some natural air freshners, lemon and orange spice, and vanilla bean. You simmer these in the glass jars on the stove or put them in a teapot. They last for weeks, just keep adding water. Smells wonderful in the house

MORE SNOW-MORE TIME TO CREATE
I am using time to continue to create new things for the FARMER'S MARKET coming up the third weekend in May.
FELTED BIRD FEEDERS - CAN STAY OUTSIDE IN ANY WEATHER - THE WOOL ACTS AS A NATURAL RAIN REPELLANT - THIS CAN ALSO BE A BIRD HOUSE - STUFF WITH FIBER SO BIRDS CAN MAKE THEIR OWN NESTS OR A PLANT HANGAR!
HAPPY BIRDS MAKE HAPPY GARDEN!
