Happy New Year, Oregon!




It's 2010 and I've only recently returned from a remarkably good time with family in Michigan. With that said, I'm really happy to be back in a warmer, wetter world where wild and locally cultivated foods are loved and appreciated.

We're in pre-season gear around here, with part of our days indoors designing, updating and finessing the growing season master plan. Our seed orders are in, we're filling our supply list, and dreaming up recipes to go with our veggies. Outside, we're working on landscape projects, revamping the greenhouse, mulching, gathering trellis materials and stakes from the woods, and myriad other projects.

Wild Spring greens are peeking up through the forest floor and it won't be long until we are able to start gathering them again. It's hard to believe an entire year has gone by since I started this blog last Spring. I've put together a Flikr slide show in the left hand column for folks interested in viewing a few highlights.

Thanks to everyone who supported us through 2009, and welcome to a new year!
