It's already been 8 days since the year has changed.
It's really fast...

By the way, at this time of year, the farm is covered in snow, making commuting a bit more difficult.
Here is the view of the farm today...

There is almost no snow.
Well, it would be helpful if the road conditions were good.
It's true that it's so unseasonable that I'm disappointed! !

I thought it would be warm because there was no snow, but when it comes to cold, it feels like it's as cold as usual or even colder.

This is what proves that! !

The witch hazel tree on the farm started blooming around this time last year and the year before.
This year it is still in bud. Although it looks like the flowers are about to bloom,
Maybe it's because of the cold weather, but it feels slower than it has been in the past few years.

In this way, despite the severe cold, there is no snow, so the seedlings of herbs such as lavender, roses, etc.
I also think it has quite a bit of an impact on vegetables, etc., so I think we need to manage it properly.
It's around this time today.
