I feel like I can officially say that spring has infact sprung! This past weekend I planned a day with my mom for us to go to the conservation park, local fruit market, and a garden store. The sun was shining and the day was absolutely beautiful. One of the main things my mom and I said we would do in general is get out more, as in get out to nature. I found a little spot for us to go the runs off of the lake. It was so clear and pretty, however my mom thought it was a bit chilly.
The spot was so pretty and we ended up sitting on a log and watching the water for a while. One thing I didn'tmention was the insane amount of bugs flying all over the place. That was a minor set back but didn't draw away from the beauty that was the lake.
Our next stop was this fruit market I'd seen once before. On their website they claimed to sell produce from a local farm but there was almost nothing local. It was all from the United States (no offence) and was more expensive than the grocery store.
Slightly disappointed with this situation my momand I headed towards the car but realized there was also a garden centre near the back.
To our surprise there was a huge amount of flowers, herbs, and shrubs! This little discovery lead to us spending around $50 on just herbs, and vegetable plants! Later in the day we then headed to another garden centre that was 3 times thatsize and packed full of people.
To add on to our total purchase for that day we got strawberry plants, succulents, jade, and more herbs.
For me this was not only time to spend with my mom and relax, but it also got me so excited for spring and summer.
Well there's that little blog post, I should be posting more but I hope this gets in the mood for some spring planting!
Until next time,
Tyler
