We have had such a lovely weekend visiting Ryan’s coworker Almerinda’s farm in Consecon Ontario in Prince Edward County. Gorgeous views, perfect weather and trading heirloom beans on a United Empire Loyalist farm is exactly what we all needed.
The lilacs were in full bloom. |
Some moss. |
Lucky Hazel found a bone. |
I spent a lot of time photographing pollinators but missed the shot of big fuzzy bumblebees despite them being plentiful. |
Gorgeous Lilacs line almost an entire side of the farm. |
I love the variation in them. These ones are lighter and rounder. |
Almost ready. |
bare feet and homemade quilts. |
Ryan is in heaven sorting and mapping tomatoes with Almerinda. |
These guys came home with me. That’s a Livingstone Golden Queen. The Livingstone Tomatoes are fascinating. |
HAzel is in her element. |
Check out the colour of this clover! |
Spectacular Allium. |
More pollination. All the trees were in bloom and it was very busy. |
Gorgeous sage. |
Delicious Chives. |
Looks like we’re going to need a wagon. |
Every farm house needs a swing. |
We planted a lot of tomatoes. |
More tomatoes and some prize winning garlic. |
Rebecca got to bring this fantastic desk home with her. Thanks! |
Last but not least, the perfect, fantastic, lovely barn. |
Everything is ready to milk some cows. |
Pretty great view of Lake Ontario from the |
Another great view, this one from the cow stalls. |
We really love this barn. |
Sigh, we need a barn. |
