How things change

27 May 2020

Boy. What a difference a week can make.

Steve and I are taking a break this weekend, time to recharge before our latest change starts.

We have stopped doing the home deliveries now as there is just not enough hours in the day and customers seem to prefer catching up at the markets.

Restaurant orders are slowly coming back in, Feilding Farmers Market has restarted as has the monthly Hokowhitu Farmers Market and we are finally starting our weekly stall in the Hokowhitu Village carpark on 7 June.

Garlic is growing nicely but we still need to net it so the birds don’t keep digging it up for us.

Steve has finished prepping the next bed for carbon cropping over winter, it already has a nice blanket of leaves on one end.

I have spent a few nights in the shed and nearly finished another serving board, started on some ginko leaf pendants (I was asked if I could do some with plain leaves so am trying a few different styles) and even had a go for the first time in a about 6 mths cutting and shaping some more pieces of stone to use.
