You can see above some striped Romans, red and yellow pears, cherry and a few small Black Russians.
They always start off slowly but at least we get to enjoy an early season preview in home meals after our months of
tender loving care.
Within the next few weeks there'll be a bounty of these as well as other heirloom types we're growing this season, soon followed by the usual suspects we all love, Roma, Grosse Lisse and such like.
On another subject, Tim saw a baby rabbit closely followed by what was probably a sizable deadly Brown snake this afternoon (these dudes move a little too fast for Kodak moments!). We are hoping it's just the cycle of life...mainly that the rabbit was snake dinner and the only one in such close vicinity to the farm crops. Hopefully there's not a whole bunch of snakes hanging around either! We know they're there but we are both (us & them) happy to avoid each other. It's another aspect to life on the land and we personally subscribe to live and let live and sincerely hope the Glenlyon snakes do too :) in regards to us humans and Billy the farm dog.
Have a lovely weekend all!
