Hi again....regarding x-country skiing this winter.....if you were planning on picking up some new skis, boots and poles...here is something that might interest you...my sister who is a snowbird(not this year of course) has a pair of brand new skiis for sale. Only used once. Women's..Fischer 190cm skiis, Fischer XC Touring boots Size EU 40( 9 1/2), and poles...$300 If interested let me know. I have the set in Ashern. If no interest I'll post on local buy and sell.

Here's the last day of the bale garden...Early Oct.

Hi all, by now your garden tools are probably stored away... waiting for spring. It'll come faster than we think. We've been busy getting our orders in, re-stocking our supplies, put some new plastic on the back greenhouse and doing general maintenance. I shut the water off to the greenhouse so my strawbale garden is also done. But it's too cold now at night anyway. We ate the last tasty tomatoes, cucs, and peppers this past week. Another thing we've been busy at is cleaning ...up the trail system in the back 80 acres. Last years storm had left alot of downed trees and although I got to some, there were still lots to clean up. What we are thinking for the winter, when snow arrives, is to open up our trails for x-country skiing and snow shoeing. You can ski for about 5km back there and further if you make more loops. Same for snowshoeing. We cant supply equipment but if you own or can borrow some we'd love to see you on the trails. Jean and I both bought new skis this month and were surprised how busy the store was for selling skiis already,(Life Sport on Pembina). With Covid, I'm sure we"ll be looking for some outdoor activity to stretch our legs etc. So we'll keep you posted on the opening date...snow dependent of course. Cheers. Jean and Tim

Hey Mom! Jean look at my lavatera! -Becky

Hello everyone. We may be closed for the season but we will attempt to keep updated on events etc....FYI...FROST WARNING for Fisher Branch on Env Canada Weather site. CTV weather says going down to 6 in Ashern which I usually subtract 3 from their forecast ... regardless... if the skies clear off it could get close to 0 overnight...so take whatever measures to ensure the safety of your plants. Let's hope it doesnt happen. Tim

Potential Frost in the forecast. Environment Canada forecasts a low of 0C tonight. Temperatures will vary throughout the region. Take precautions to protect your plants....cover or bring them indoors.

We had a visit from 3 University of Brandon students who asked to access our trails to collect wood ticks for a study they are working on. One student was Jessica Sparrow,center, granddaughter of Kathy and Vic Avery. They were hoping to collect 300 ticks...they were out about an hour and collected 400+/-. They were happy...lol.

Another cool photo...this time of a Tree Swallow...checking out the camera....

This guy was at our feeder the other day...an Indigo Bunting...dont think I've seen one of these before..... So what's been at your feeders??? Post a pic if you have...

Another great weekend is upon us...enjoy.

It's cool watching the pollinators at work...these bees are on our Honeyerry bushes(Haskap)...berries on the way....

Herbs can add just the right touch of flavour to your summer beverages! This is a virgin mojito but feel free to add some rum! Snip the mint leaves from the top of the plant to promote more growth and to keep your plant healthy! The smaller leaves tend to have more flavour and sweetness. Recipe:... In a tall glass add a wedge of lime (or 2!), 4-5 mint leaves and a 1/2 tbsp of sugar or sweetener. Muddle it up with the end of a wooden spoon or pestle to get the flavours to blend. Fill the glass with ice, add a shot of white rum if you like, then fill to the top with club soda. Give it a stir and garnish with extra mint or a lime wedge! Enjoy!

Hope you are all enjoying this great Victoria Day Holiday Monday...we are open today from 10-7.
