fern hill

We took a trip out to fern hill nursery this weekend for their equinox open house. My first thought was 'why does every community we visit involve at least 1/2 a mile on a bumpy, 1 lane, dirt road, uphill'? This is a small community, just a few people who live and work with the nursery. It was a beautiful permaculture example. The main reason I went, aside from just wanting to see it, was the apple press. The ad said to bring apples and jars to make cider! Yum! We harvested apples from a tree at a vacant house on my street the day before... now that was a sight to see. I borrowed a ladder from my step dad, and rode my bike, carrying it down the street!
