This morning, Theo and I made lunch. We thought about piling up salad greens on the table and teaching everyone the glories of the hand-salad. Instead, we roasted chicken, mashed parsnips, kale and offered up Emily's beautiful casserole!
This afternoon, it was independent project time again. Last week, I worked with children to prune some of the apple trees in the orchard. Today, we planted the replacement trees. A few "chicken coop" friends joined me to dig a hole up in the orchard and plant the Alexander apple tree.

Thanks!
The Final tree found a spot in the rock wall planter in the barnyard at Sentinel Elm. I started working on this and several volunteers showed up!
