Flowers in June

"We too should wonder and give thanks,that from the dry stalk of wheat there comes ample bread,that from the vine stalk there flows wine...this too is a great wonder, as great as the miracle at Cana." St. Ephrem

This time last year I was visiting England during their cool and rainy month of May. The weather here in the Piedmont seems strangely similar. Goodness! I am not looking forward to the heat of the summer, but would love to see the sun. Admittedly I am at present reading in front of a moody and warming fire. Yes, in May!

Please know that I have not forgotten about all of my subscribers! I have been gauging the weather and the many stalks and blooms that are ready to burst forth with color wondering when our start date should be. I am concerned about beginning the subscription on Memorial Day and am assuming that many of you will be out of town that weekend so I am going to set our first bouquet pick up to Monday June 6th unless there are some of you who would like a bouquet for the week of Memorial Day on May 30th. As the date gets closer I will send more details. Looking forward to it!
