The Blue Bomber in action

This little walk behind "tractor" is a workhorse. It can till, plow, chip cut and even throw snow with the right attachment. The greatest thing about I think, is that it does not compact the soil like a tractor would. 

In this picture, I am using the rotary plow to kick out rocks, till the soil and make raised rows that will grow our delicious sweet corn.  Our nice neighbor Sam took this picture.

 Ahhhhh...Spring 2014.

We are so much enjoying the early days of spring! The many projects and ideas that were hatched next to the warm fire during the winter finally have a chance to gain wings. 

Like us, the daffodils and tulips hibernating in our basement and under snow were eager to feel the warm sunshine...as is our budding young fruit orchard and strawberry patch. 

And like clockwork, our farm has silently come to life without the slightest hesitation- as if to say, "Winter? What winter?"
