Where do I start? There is so much going on in the garden, I don’t even know where to begin. I may have to split this into 2 posts next time so I can cram all the photos in. The raised garden beds are on fire! Pretty soon we will be swimming in a sea Read More >>

If you ever find yourself in Napa Valley, California in search of the perfect supplies for a picnic lunch, I highly recommend the Oakville Grocery.
