Thanks for tuning in, dear Friend of Fernville!
It has been a hectic and hurried final few days here in the city. A nervous anxiousness creeps back into the apartment, here in the wee hours. So many seemingly endless hours of sorting and packing, re-sorting, and finalizing the basics for the past few weeks have nearly come to their grand finale!
Always refusing to become victims of stress, we instead anticipate the coming week of drastic change and new beginnings with an open mind and joyful spirit! To Fernville or Bust!
We were able to purchase nearly 80 varieties of seeds and starter plants from our initial Fernville fundraising efforts and our rainy days Awesome Yard / Record Sale; Just a few examples - Cosmic Carrots, Sugar Snap Peas, Pumpkins, Strawberries, Lilacs, Beets, Broccoli, Blue Hydrangeas, Peppers, Radishes, Squash, Tomatoes,,, and well, we will get into detailing all the amazing varieties in an upcoming seed starter pictorial!
The other big highlights of the week have been news of our initial sponsors - who have selected names for our first two chickens (yet to even be hatched!) Rose and Francesca! We will be giving you a DIY guide of their coop building right here on this very blog in the coming weeks!
Even more pleasant surprises were an amazing tool and book set, countless words of wisdom and support, and..... a giant blueberry plant from our dear friends, so much love!
We are also currently in the process of compiling an important equipment and supply wishlist !!! Please give whatever you can to help, even a comment of encouragement goes a long way in this project!
In any case, we certainly will be asking for much more support, be it financial, emotional, and of course the general advice of our extended network of Fernville Friends in the future!
Immediately following the big move on Monday, we will be 'unplugged' for a bit while we hit the ground running with many simultaneous projects, but be sure to check back here and on our new Facebook Page, for updates, new pictures, and plans for the spring season!
