Wildflowers Blooming on the Farm

September 1, 2009 by Jeanne


I love to learn the names of things…birds, wildflowers, stars. I snapped photos of these wildflowers blooming in our woods. Can you identify them? I did not take photos of what I could identify….Queen Anne’s lace, cornflowers, honeysuckle, and Goldenrod are blooming now, and the Milk Weed in the fields has set its flower pods.

What are the names of these beautiful wildflowers?

This pink one is at the edge of the driveway. It reminds me of a sweet pea. What is it?

This yellow daisy-like flowers grows on the edges of the clearing and is very tall, in some spots over four feet:

This one is in the woods, in deep shade, and grows in clusters or clumps. What is it?

This one has flowers so small, they’re easy to miss. It’s growing near the base of trees. Do you know what it is? I don’t !

Swedish Tea Bread

I first made Swedish tea bread for my 50th birthday. Three of my friends have birthdays in the same month and invited me to their family group birthday celebration (they are all relatives).

How to Start Composting in Winter

Have you thought about starting a compost pile, but you’re wondering how to start composting in winter?
