Grateful for this November day in 2020. The garden is under straw, there is soup in the pot, a dog on the porch, and heat in Andy’s shop.

Guardian Chippy (the self appointed quality/taste inspector) of the Beach Plums. We observed each other for a while... and lil chip even winked at me!

May2020 project for our beloved “garden of sustenance” celebrating thirty years here. Made with repurposed fabric, straw bale twine, surveyors tape, and artist ingenuity.

The new northeast corner: a flagstone bookend to the spiral. Planting with sunflowers, hollyhocks, alyssum, and thyme.
