SEEDS COMING IN for Autumn 2021

 

Malcolm Cameron (1902-1975)
"Winter Storage"

Cameron's Shaw Island reefnet boats  
escort the last crop of seeds harvested; 
Rosa glauca heps,
Yansen farm fat Cardoon pods,
pods of perennial Sweet Peas,
as they also hunker down for winter storage.
A healthy supply for the Gatehouse seed rack,
Reefnet Bay Road,
Shaw Island, San Juan Archipelago, WA.
Fourteen October 2021.
Thanks, Diana.

"Two sounds of autumn are unmistakable––the hurrying rustle of crisp leaves blown across the street by a gusty wind, and the gabble of a flock of migrating geese."
       American writer Hal Borland.

A "V" of migrating geese were seen flying east over the Yansen farm yesterday headed for their safe "winter storage" in the Skagit River valley.
