 Queen Latifah and Clyde, 2 weeks old on Derby Day. Spring is a time of renewal and anticipation on the farm. "The Easter Freeze," as it is known here in Kentucky, was devastating to many in the Bluegrass. Like many vegetable growers, I lost most all the spring crops I had planted and found myself starting over the last two weeks of April. This included many of the perennial culinary herbs and assorted greens I had hoped to start the season with. Even now not all the potatoes and onions are planted and it’s nearly time to transplant the tomato and pepper plants.

A gratuitous cute pet photo. Watching Ben peel and eat an ear of sweet corn (monetary value .35 cents an ear) serves as entertainment at the farm stand. Permanent link to this post (30 words, 1 image, estimated 7 secs reading time)

A lof of people think our scarecrow was separated at birth from Christina Aguilera. I think she wore those earrings to the Grammys. Permanent link to this post (25 words, 1 image, estimated 6 secs reading time)

We used straw bales to create a raised bed for sweet potato vines, cleome and climbing hyacinths. This is the entrance to the Honest Farm childrens’ garden. Permanent link to this post (29 words, 1 image, estimated 7 secs reading time)

If you ever want to entertain kids, just hitch up a wagon and throw on a few bales of hay. Who needs a PlayStation? Permanent link to this post (26 words, 1 image, estimated 6 secs reading time)

Kevin and Eva grapple for fingerlings at the Childrens’ Garden opening. I’m thinking I should charge more for potatoes picked by angelic children.
