Holiday Greetings


Traditional holiday greetings from Stone Wall Gardens to everyone that should have received a USPS delivered card or an Email greeting.  We must stay within our reliably functional skill set.  This row of pines were impressive when this land came our way twenty-five years ago.  We believe that one or more of the children of the last family to farm this land planted these Norwegian Spruce trees as a 4-H project.  We have opened a path across the interior of these trees.  It is a great refuge from beastly summer heat.
 

This is a stark departure from customary holiday cards.  For the second time this year, Locust branches are laden with new snow.  Some may find the brutal beauty worth a second look.  One of our early activities here was to truck compost from a village heap to our planned garden.  A Locust tree grew up out of that pile and was deemed worthy of anchoring our shade garden.

                                         Happy Holiday Greetings to all who read this.
