Time to mow the lawn, use the clippings for compost in the garden.
Soon we can till or turn the soil. If needed cover the garden with plastic to keep the rain off.
Peaches and prunes - blooming.
Pears and cherries - near bloom
Blueberries - fully leafed out.
Garlic - very nice.
Farmers market this weekend, downtown Eugene.

Great weather
Another good day, rather wet.
Plums and ornamental plums in full bloom.
Grass growing tall. Mulch garden and flower areas with mulch. Keep compost pile covered to keep from getting too wet. Add nitrogen to compost.

Back
Back from three weeks in Belarus. I tried to enter Email but the connectios was very slow. We taught tree fruits and pruning to 220 plus growers and organic farming. Glad to back with hot water! Locally spring is really moving forward. Peaches about to break. Soil still very wet after the last two weeks of rain.
