Ice Harvesting Event, Ice Boxes & Early Food Preservation

Aunt Eunice here. I have been enjoying this snowy weather we’ve been having, but I do wish it would snow everywhere except on the roads and walkways! That sure is a lot of plowing and shoveling! It is so pretty though and looks much closer to the winters of my youth.

Harvesting Ice During the Wintertime at Quiet Valley

Hello Folks,

Aunt Eunice here. I hope you are all healthy as a farm’s work horse and doing well. Here on the farm, we are busy with workshops, planning for spring, and preparing for Preschool registration which is always a hectic few days. The farmer was very excited as his vegetable seeds came in the mail last week. He and the retired farm manager can’t wait to get in the garden to plant them. I swear, every gardener’s favorite times are planting and harvesting! Not much to harvest on a farm this time of year, right? Well, there are a couple of things around here you can only harvest in the winter. That would be ice and maple sap.

Hello Folks, 

Aunt Eunice here. The first week of a new year is over and I can’t help but think of a year of possibilities stretching out before me in the remaining 51 weeks. They could be good, they could be mediocre or they could be not so good. Probably a mix. I am putting out wishes and prayers for good ones for all of us!
