Signs of Spring

Spring is in the air and in our flower beds! It was a pretty mild winter here and lately we've been enjoying unusually warm temperatures. The snow has left our yard and our bulbs are beginning to push their way up through the mulch. 

​I was surprised to find flowers blooming in my beds this week. Pretty little crocus, our first flowers of 2016. We haven't had flowers this early in the last dozen years.

As much as I love seeing the flowers, this warm weather is really hurting our maple syrup project. It will be a short run for us this year. Our sap was all but over before it started. We will be lucky to get a 1/2 gallon of syrup, if that.

With little sap to boil Jason decided to get an early start with our yard work. Today he installed the bluebird boxes he built this earlier this winter. (Watch our "Build a Bluebird Box" video HERE.)

Last Saturday we officially kicked off our 2016 Event Season with the "Spring Garden Conference & Luncheon" hosted by the Alpine Master Gardener Association and MSU Extension. It was great to connect with fellow gardeners. Everyone is itching to get back into the garden! We took a mix of gourds & glass to show and said goodbye to our Monarch butterfly inspired candle bridge made special for this event.

We hope you are finding your own signs of spring.
​Enjoy this wonderful weather!
