Welcome to our new Taproot Farm Journal!
This is where we will share updates about Taproot Farm as we build our small farm step-by-step, season-by-season.

Today the sun is shining but the ground is still covered with several inches of snow. As it melts and rolls off the mountain we can hear the waterfall grow louder and wilder. After 7 snows this season, the last one 30" deep, we expect a lot of water flowing down our stream soon. It is hard to imagine we'll ever get our hands into dry garden soil again- come on sun!

As we wait to get out in the garden, we'll enjoy the last few weeks starting seeds indoors, finishing construction of the chicken coop and bee hives, and reading about raising a puppy in anticipation of our new farm puppy coming early June.

Stay tuned!
