In bloom

Before we moved the farm, I was vehement that we only grow food. I thought flowers weren't useful.


Oh, how wrong I was.


 The Zinnias are like a patch of fireworks that the butterflies love. 


The bees especially love the flowers. 


And I love them too.

  2. I read somewhere recently "Yes, only grow food. But remember that food for wildlife is just as important as food for people." You are growing food - for the bees and butterflies too. :)

  3. I remember the back porch was a hotspot for wasps! Is it still? Additionally, the berries near the barns need those bees. You pictures are like works of art.
