nose candy falls at a near white - out tempo as we head down the road to the farm
possibly we have been baby . For the last few years , we have been able to work through the majority of wintertime on many of our outdoor projects . During the winter of 2010 - 11 , we work almost non - hold on on completing the b . We rarely had temperature below 30 – and just a few little snowfall . The next two wintertime – we put in fence , build the raw volaille hencoop and were able to put in all of our vinery posts as Mother Nature remain kind with less than average snowfalls , and above average temperatures . Not so for the wintertime of 2013 - 2014 !
The garden is in a mysterious sleep under a weighed down coat of Baron Snow of Leicester .
Snow falls at a near white-out pace as we head down the road to the farm
Winter has some back with a vengeance – and seems like it will be staying for a while ! With close to 6″ of snow falling yesterday – and another 1 to 2″ hail again today – the farm is covered in a thick mantle of snow . regrettably , it wo n’t be give out anywhere soon – we have had a foot race of below freeze temperature for what seems like a calendar month – and this workweek we are expected to drop down to as depleted as -10 to -15 on Tuesday and Wednesday morning .
Our dreams of having the new wicket house rear by the end of January , and the Cabin Project started by March now seem all but comical .
All we can do is hold off patiently for wintertime to break it ’s hold . We thought we would use the down - time to saunter around the farm and share some winter pictures – we hope you enjoy ! Mary and Jim
