Weeding Perennials

I was weeding over at Common Ground today. The Veronica is free, the Alstromeria is looking good, the Asiatic Lilies are poking up, as are the Peonies, and lot's of new growth all around. Julie was pruning the 20 year old lavender bushes, so we got to talk about life, family, books, plans, insights, skills, etc... while we worked. Precious time with this amazing mentor and friend.
A beautiful day!

We picked a bunch of nettles today.

Get the sap running, hopefully.

Full on at the Food Bank Garden.
