Hey and welcome!
Here in upper East Tennessee, we are just doing our best to beat the heat, how about you?
I’m doing my best to get some things planted in our garden terraces. Better late than never, right?
So I’m heading out to plant some sunflowers and herbs, and hopefully I can locate my okra seeds, because they’re on my schedule today!
Oh, we went to visit a local lavender farm last week, so check out that video up on the YouTube channel!
