Lavendel fields.....'forever' aganst the background of the Grand canyon du Verdon. The lavender is in bloom from June to August after which it is harvested for use in parfumes and soaps.

Salad from our garden. Arugula, mesclun, nasturtiums and violets with a sprinkling of lentil sprouts! Does it get any better?

A few weeks ago we started our vegetable garden. With lots af sun and a fair amount of rain it is doing great. Even though we're novices at gardening, we had a good initiation for our start-up in April when our daughter was here. Love and gratitude. Hers was a "busgirl's holiday" you might say. She is usually at play in the fields of www.greenstringfarm.com in California. 

She also introduced us to the new hex-hive for bees. But more about that one in a hext - I mean next - blogspot. A plus!
