WHAT'S IT LIKE TO WORK ON A FARM??
Welcome to my work blog!
So, after some thought, I decided to start a work blog!! Over the years, friends and family seem pretty impressed upon telling them about the farm where I work. A lot of them seem shocked at the actual size of the nursery, and the quanity of product we crank out in a season. So why not keep a daily journal of what goes on here?

Spring tenderness
Spring 2012 has sprung at work! Due to the recent low overnight temps, we've had to protect our tender new growth on our plants. The last few nights we've watered our plants to form a protective ice barrier. The results were beautiful! Ice art...
Abies concolor
Icy needles
Serbian Spruce
Icy Daub's Frosted.... they really are!

Color me Pink!
Rosa Patriot Dream
We received this bunch of roses from our Oregon farm not too long ago. A dreamy pink, these beauties are popping with color right now! To the left, Juniperus x Daub's Frosted add a nice green contrast to the blushing hue.
