Spring on Orcas Island

Big Sky

Spring is trying hard to show itself.  The weather has been extremely variable, windy, rainy, snowy, sunny, hail, rain again.  All the fruit tree pruning is finally done, the buds were really beginning to start pushing, but then the temperatures dropped.  We are hoping for some days at least in the 50's, bees for pollination would be nice.  I do not think that is asking too much.

In the greenhouse everything is on track, tomatoes are planted inside and now are starting to sprout.

We reopened the restaurant this week and we have been pleasantly surprised with the local turnout.

Some very tasty Buck Bay and Judd Cove oysters on the menu, we are lucky to have some of the finest shellfish in the world right here on Orcas island.
