Black & White St Croix Available!

Black & White St Croix Available!

We have several St Croix ewes up for sale right now. Many are either black/white themselves or have black/white parents. We also have a couple ewes that are from pure white genetics available.

June 2023 Planting Guide – Zone 7/8

June 2023 Planting Guide – Zone 7/8

According to many sites, the Willamette Valley is considered Zone 8, or more specifically 8b. I know for a fact that where we live in the foothills of the Valley (at roughly 400ft elevation) we have enough of a micro-climate to be better off following the Zone 7 guidelines.

My Wednesdays are School Days

My Wednesdays are School Days

I chose Wednesdays for school days because, during the school year, my daughter has early release and there’s little time to start a big project. I wanted to share with you some of the courses I’ve purchased (some that I haven’t) that I either have done or will do in the future.

New Projects

I’m contemplating the best way to undertake this new project milling around in my head. It’s going to be huge, I’m super nervous, and have little idea how to accomplish it, but I am going to give it a try! Details inside… Enjoy! Amy
