Rhubarb Pie

We have been enjoying some yummy treats made from the rhubarb growing in the garden this spring. So far I have made 2 pies, muffins and ice cream. Maybe I can post the recipes later.

Growing

The garden is doing well. We have lettuce and greens just about ready. The tomato plants are loving their new home in the hoophouse.

Ready to Work

David saw Daddy with potting soil in his wheelbarrow so he wanted some too. He is always ready to "help" with whatever we are working on around the farm. Having a little guy on the farm can be very challenging at times, with the constant reminders not to step on the plants or dig up the seeds, but it is also such a joy. He is so enthusiastic about the garden. When we set up the hoophouse he was jumping up and down exclaiming "We are putting the hoophouse up, we are putting the hoophouse up!" He talks about the Farmers Market all the time and wants to bring vegetables from his garden to sell (he also wanted to bring his legos to sell). He is learning so much every day about planting and growing veggies. Sometimes he sees how we do something once and the next time he is telling us what to do:) Having him with us and involved in everything we do is such a joy and benefit for all of us.
