Yesterday I mulched our ancient apple trees, planted yukon gold potatoes, and mulched a good section of the blackcurrant bushes. It doesn't sound like a lot, but I put a huge dent in the materials pile.

picked up winter pruning sticks near the fire circle and added to the bonfire pile (we leave them on the ground for wildlife through the winter), and harvested a huge load of sage. 2/end

Waiting for me to get back from another appointment for the Crone's knee, so this harvest can be turned into sage bundles to distribute to other magical peeps. Another day, another harvest.

Sage bundles, anyone?

Permaculture crossfit is a thing. Who needs a gym when I can move yards and yards of material all over #VillaWestwyk on a sunny spring day?

Zinnias, Eggplant, Tomato, & Pepper started today. We've had a very cold Spring. Have learned not to plant too early, especially because these plants will be in protected spaces after graduating the greenhouse. A coven of fig propagation went in, too.

Our well went out last night. Service folx enroute. Use this as your reminder to have at least six gallons of potable water per person on hand for emergencies.

Can someone explain why native plants cost 3 times as much? Is it just the PNW? I can get non-native plants for a pittance, but if you want native, well friend, you're going to pay more. It's so silly. This is why once I procure a plant, I propagate the heck out of it.

Dinner in green and orange. Overwintered root vegetables are quite the tasty spring treat.

The strawberry rhubarb patch is doing pretty good considering the plant in the lower left has had to been moved four times since 2020. Finding the right spot for growing food and making sure they have some 'fam' around them can be quite the process. Don't give up. #OnTheCovenstead
A cartoon featuring a woman in a business suit in an unemployment office sitting at a desk with an old man with a missing eye and a Viking helmet and cloak sitting at the desk. A spear is propped against the wall next to the man. A crow sits on the man's shoulder, another crow on the woman's chair. Words below the scene read: Unfortunately, we don't have any positions involving fighting giants, drinking the blood of your enemies, or divining the future. We do have an opening for magical deity who delivers gifts to children on Christmas Eve. Any interest in that?
a cartoon of four panels of a witch holding a container of salt in the snow. It reads: There's just something so witchy about salting for snow. Like you're repelling malicious frost spirits. Back ice demons! I banish you from this walkway (ice replies: Ah! The salt! it burns! We're melting!) Witch continues: Good.
A black box with the words: Therapist: and what do we do when we feel like this? Me: black magick Therapist: no
An old fashioned manual typewriter with a paper in it with the typewritten words: Dear insurance executive, First of all, I would like you to know that I'm typing this entire letter with my middle finger.
The Old Man is always trying, right?😉
For my Witches digging out from winter still...
Therapists can be such drags.

Just finished re-transplanting 100 additional volunteer garlic starts. If they do well, it means we'll have 300 heads of garlic to harvest. 150 for the larder & kindred; the rest will go to the food bank.
I earned my shower and my chore kombucha today.

I seriously have a too many books not enough time problem. My TBR pile is seriously so high. But there are more books to procure.

A vase of daffodils
Have a bit of spring for your eyes.. The daffodils are busting through here #OnTheCovenstead. Had to go rescue some from the 50 kn gusts of wind we're having right now with 27 sustained. Thank you, Fraser Valley outflow.
Whenever I feel uncertain, my Practice helps clear the fog and illuminates a clearer path. That's exactly what I aim to offer my clients, too.

I've been working on three projects at the same time and all three are now complete. But there is more writing/editing to do, so going to take a break under Grandmother Willow and then decide which creation gets my attention next.

We don't celebrate Saint Patrick in this household, for obvious reasons. But we do make a meal to honor our Irish ancestors. And we wear black. And there will be Irish Whiskey later.

A snapshot of an individual's DNA ancestry.
Ancestor work has been busy & they have been super chatty. I got a name to look up on my family tree. That lead me to discover a 'new & improved' DNA list. Basically the same, but more details now. Still looking for the name/line. 🤞🤞🤞 #OnTheCovenstead #Ancestry #CreativeCrone

The rain is pouring down in walls. It's better than the snow my ol' stomping grounds received. But, I don't want to go out in it for my PT appointment. I think there might be a local bakery stop in my future. The ducks in the pasture are loving it, tho.

One weird thing I wasn't expecting living further rural as I have the last six years, is seeing the near-daily occurrence of people "walking the perimeter" with a rifle in their hands. You know because there's man-eating tigers in the Pacific Northwest. 😏

Witch Wednesday Tip:
Stay curious. Keep your heart open. The right people, ideas, and opportunities will bloom in their own time.

Today would've been my Pops' 80th birthday. At first when I smelled cigar smoke whilst doing morning barn chores, I thought there was an intruder about. Nope, just Dad coming to give me inspiration for a new offering in my shop.
