As Spring has Sprung, and even felt a bit like summer yesterday, Green is becoming more and more visible. Saw the first Skink yesterday and the first Garter Snake this morning. Hiking in the woods becomes a bit of a concern, as we need to start to keep aware of the Copperheads, and rattler's.
One of the things I really wanted our place to become was a menagerie of edible plants. It is getting there, partly because we have become informed about what is edible that grows wild and partly because we just let things bolt and throw seeds everywhere, rather than compost them. It does make weeding more challenging in that I tend to let things grow a little longer to see if they can be food or not.

| Kale plant that wintered over is now sprouting leaves. We'll probably just let this one bolt. |
