Virginia Wildflowers

April 23, 2012 by Jeanne

My friend, fellow writer and Master Gardener, Cynthia Wood, has started a great project documenting one of Virginia’s natural treasures – Virginia wildflowers, specifically local wild flowers at Bear Creek State Park and Holliday Lake State Park (one of my favorite local hiking spots.)  She has a website and a Facebook page devoted to Virginia wildflowers.  Please “like” her Facebook page and if you drop her a note, let her know you found her information through Jeanne at Seven Oaks.

Swedish Tea Bread

I shaped the bread into braided rings and decorated it with sliced almonds. It was a hit, and I have made it…

How to Start Composting in Winter

Have you thought about starting a compost pile, but you’re wondering how to start composting in winter? I mean, after all, here in Virginia we just had three solid weeks of absolutely tundra-like temperatures.
