We are in the middle of a very cold winter and finally getting much needed moisture. Some of the western slope growers have reported damage to their fruit trees. We will wait until the lagging spring freezes have run their course to make any predictions about Mesa Winds Farm 2010 harvests.
November 1, we welcomed the birth of a new grandbaby to the family. December we really did sleep for long periods of time! In January we attended the Western Colorado Horticultural Society Annual Conference and Tour and are excited about the sheep we are adding to our farm this spring. In February Wink is making a long journey to Argentina to visit his daughter. |
