It seems like all anybody talks about around here this winter is the weather, which has certainly been noteworthy. Asheville is having, so far, the third snowiest winter on record, and that’s without March weighing in yet. March can be a pretty snowy month around here!
Fortunately, this weekend it’s warming up pretty dramatically—up to the average for this time of year!—and the sun is actually supposed to come out. We have major plans for the nice weather—there is so much to do around here, and we’ve gotten so little done this winter. A couple of different friends have offered to come out and lend a hand on the farm in exchange for moopons, our farm barter dollars.
I would love to get going on some garden projects, but alas, the ground is beyond soggy, so I’m not sure if that can happen! But I’m sure we’ll come up with plenty of projects to keep us all busy.

I’m planning to catch up on the laundry—comforter, rugs, bathmats—and do some outside cleanup. We left everything for the birds this winter, and they’ve stripped all the stems bare, so this weekend is slated for the cleanup that I usually do in February. I can’t wait!
We, too, will be outside this weekend. Loads and loads of laundry on the lines and hopefully we’ll get the garden tilled and ready for spinach, lettuce, beets and radishes. I can’t wait either.
Funny how good it sounds to just be able to get things done! What a long, funky winter it’s been!
Same here. I ran into Ruthie this morn, and we talked about coming out there to take part in your Poo to Moopons Program. Looking forward to it…
