Back at the cabin



Last fall Rolf felled two of our three ancient apple trees. This little replacement is called Discovery and will hopefully produce as soon as next year. Our "family" plum tree (with three different cultivars so they pollinate each other) planted last year already has several baby plums on it.



Everything about our cabin and garden are a work in progress. Nevertheless, its quite lovely being here. And this summer light! Note the (soon to be occupied) fermentation vessel.



Still baking sourdough bread despite the miniature oven..




Letting some of the second crop of rhubarb grow in darkness to preserve the ruby red color.



Behind the house in a shady bed: the valerian is thriving and even seeded itself (top left) among the flowering ramsons (ramsløk) and wild strawberry.


Black tulips popping up around the blackberry bush after all the other tulips have gone
 
Last but not least, an ecstatic Porcini frolicking among the flowering Chinese chives.
