We had a late freeze and an extremely wet spring. My new whiskey barrels were essentially just buckets of water, which means that all of my herbs drowned except for the chives.
My cherries and plums were all lost to hail, just as they were ripening. sigh.
Some years are just that way, aren't they? Even so, it's never all bad.
Somehow the chives keep surviving.
My neighbor started keeping bees, which explains why I've seen more this year...
... and certainly explains why our apple tree has fruit in it's off year.
I think they'll be ready to start putting up next weekend.
