Cover Crop, Pawlet, VT

June 18, 2018

That’s one of the Three Sisters mountains in the back, a distinctive ridge line for which the town is known. My best not-a-farmer guess on the cover crop? Oats.

On a quick trip to VT this past weekend, I was struck with the many patches of wild lupines growing on the roadsides. They remind me of the black-eyed susans and daisies that will soon follow in these places, but less egalitarian and more patrician in their bearing. The meadows were also a sight to behold; the grasses are spring green and knee high, and waving with the winds. Summer beckons!

Party, Wardsboro, VT

Taken over a quarter of a century ago, on slide film. Steve (third from left) and Laurie lived in a shack right on that stream in the background, and welcomed many a soul there for some serious R and R.

Taken a month ago; at this point, the field may be about chest high.
