My little dogwood is doing nicely. The leaves keep growing and the trunk seems nice and solid. I potted it last weekend and added some root food to make sure that transplant takes properly. I trimmed back the tops of the branches to encourage it to grow laterally a bit more. I hope I can actually bring it home soon and start to keep a closer eye on it.

Too late this year

We’re going to postpone the bees until next year. I convinced Mom that we should get some so we’ll start the process of acquiring and placing the hives this fall/winter. In the spring, we’ll contact one of the local beekeepers and get a nuc from him. Sometimes good things come to those who wait…

My mother and I have made a bunch of boxes for our garden in the country. We have already planted three of them with tomatoes, peppers, leeks, watermelon, strawberries and zucchini.
