Hmmm, the world of blog. (said to myself)

There has been a bit of a shake up at Of The Earth and if it's not obvious, the retail aspect of the operation has stopped operation.

In other news we have started building an earth contact high tunnel with the help of SARE grant monies. We will be exploring raspberry production in it for next year.

I like the lavender picture--can almost smell the fragrance. Ummmm.

An unheated growing structure, similiar to an unheated greenhouse set into the side of the hill. The back wall is tamped earth in tires to absorb heat and grow in. In this case the raspberries are planted in pots and we move them in and out depending on where they are at in their growing cycle. One could also plant into the soil. I'll put some pictures on soon. Ah, and maybe a little bit of the fruit gets distilled in that sensual chunk of copper, that shapely creation that's whispering desire for a fire.....beneath 'er.
