Health issues

Jackie called me yesterday afternoon. She didn’t want you all to worry if you don’t see a blog from her this week. She is having a little medical issue (not COVID-19!), and will be back to blogging soon. She wanted me to assure everybody that she is doing fine.

Will is doing good keeping up with the seed orders, but I’ll bet he’ll be glad when Jackie can help him again — it’s a job that goes a lot faster with two people.

In the meantime here are a couple of her past garden pictures to brighten your day. — Lisa

  Yes, I’m chipper as a robin today! We had a wonderful, albeit quiet, Easter with the quarantine and all. But we’re truly grateful for every single blessing. Thank you!

So i have a beautiful honey berry bush. How and what do i do with the berries. Pretty darn tart. Wishing and praying for you and your speedy recovery.

  Thank you Shelley. Yep, honey berries aren’t often sweet like their name suggests. But they do make terrific jam! Use a blueberry recipe and you’ll love them!!!
