❦ We're back!! ❦

After a long and arduous time away, we're back!! and this time for good. We are bigger, better and  more efficient than ever! It took a while but we have finally gotten our vertical hydroponic strawberry system up, and while there have been a few hiccups it is certainly a force to be reckoned with.

To the right you can see the start of our insect hotel. This will build up the native bees and other pollinators/predator insects, as, the European honey bees future in Ontario (and Canada as a whole) is grim if we do not get rid of these toxic substances farmers keep spraying or buying.

While it has been fun getting the strawberry system set up, I am longing for the days I can bring in a shipment of citrus trees again. There is nothing like waking up in the morning to the smell of citrus blossoms or picking your own fresh lime right off the tree.



I shall keep this blog rolling, the berries flowing and the citrus growing, so look out for more posts on all sorts of farming ideas/projects and Ontario, Canada goodness!.

All the best!
