Not much to see today, but methinks I soon will have some nice pollinator-friendlies up and blooming! Apple tree in the foreground, along with monarda, and vegetable beds ranging back toward the house. Out of the picture are my native plantings, which are a hit with the pollinator gang!

Summer birds are beginning to arrive! Here's a Red Wing Blackbird the other morning.

After shoveling out in the wake of a big snowfall mid-week, I am looking forward to Garden Day 8 March presented by the Rice County Master Gardener program. This will be my third year attending and my first as a Master Gardener intern!

I listen to public radio all day and have for longer than I can remember! I even tuned in to my hometown station when I was working in Malaysia! Help me keep public radio strong and vibrant! #protectmypublicmedia

Gorgeous snowfall; our first real storm of the season. Deep and wet with spring moisture.

Flavorful, crunchy sourdough baguettes from my Sunday oven! 🍽️

Cardinals are starting to warm up their songs here in southern Minnesota! #addBirder

A bit of fun with glass, milkweed seeds, and light.

Not sure what the groundhog has to say say, but I am ready to get back into my garden!
