Comfrey was blooming yesterday as well as feverfew which is early for us. It has been very dry and warm comparing to other years so it seems nature is a bit a headed; my spinach already bolting. With that in mind Saturday will 30's (3C) Saturday morning. I have several tomato plants up over a foot tall so might need to start the poly tunnel heater Sat morning to keep them happy. Cover crop of cereal rye, hairy vetch, triticale and red clover is coming along nicely. Will terminate in about two weeks to plant corn and pole beans. My thought is that the clover will remain as a living mulch.

Came across this today. Made me wonder, are we teaching our children classical wisdom. Classical wisdom is the old, time-tested teaching that helps people live with better judgment, stronger character, clearer thinking, and deeper purpose. It is not just old books. It is the steady wisdom passed down through scripture, history, philosophy, literature, nature, family practice, and lived experience. Classical wisdom teaches us how to become the kind of person who can think clearly, choose wisely, and live with purpose.
