While the weather has pretty much stopped the sugaring season, the farm is heading full steam(or close to it) into the rest of the farm spring business. Yesterday was more logging to get rid of the trees that would have shaded the new greenhouse spot. This morning a couple of sheep got their spring haircuts which will make them all clean and white for at least one day. The other sheep have finally stopped teasing the newly sheared ones and seemed to have let it go. More planting over the next few days and next weekend is bucket washing we think. Although bucket washing may sound as tedious as washing the dishes it really is not and we always seem to fill the air with soap bubbles, good(and bad) music, flying buckets, and always laughter. If you are driving around the neighborhood next weekend and see or hear any of the above stop on in; its even more amusing than watching us dancing in the sugar house while boiling. :)
Happy now officially spring everyone!
