My blog is a day late - 80 degrees and sunshine at the farm have kept me either in the fields or the greenhouse. It is an unseasonably warm May two days into the month. Today we planted an assortment of lettuce in the fields. I worked in the greenhouse transplanting peppers, basil, and fennel. A few customers have spring fever and ventured out to purchase hanging baskets, patio pots and vegetable starts. More customers are a bit more cautious as the farm crew predicts yet another frost. In the last two months we have seen the birth of several calfs. That miracle never ceases to amaze me.... In the coming weeks there should be a new lamb or two.
Thank you for your blogs, pictures and reflections. All of you continue to inspire me with your energy and passion. I am relying on the wisdom of my daughter Erin to inspire you....................

Sisters and
Associates,
Several people
have recommended that I share Regina Brett’s column from yesterday’s Plain Dealer. http://www.cleveland.com/brett/blog/index.ssf/2012/05/nuns_should_keep_standing_up_t.html
In addition to
her comments on nuns in general she specifically cites the vocation and ministry
of Cleveland Ursuline Sr. Erin Zubal.
Erin ’s mother is HM Volunteer Beth Bartlett
who is working on the Villa Farm this year. Joanne
