Fava and Firewood




So the neighbors have been asking us what's up with our yard. We planted a cover crop last fall of Fava Beans, and i just adore our Fava Forest we got going here. The plant is very attractive, with mostly white with purple flowers that look like butterflies, gets to be about 2.5-3' tall and fixes nitrogen in the soil. With all that was going on last summer and fall with the wedding and remodel, we didn't have time to landscape. That's my task for this year.

Also shown above is a cord of special cut 10" firewood (i'm including this photo mostly for my dad). A cord is a lot more firewood than i thought and so we have firewood stacked around the back of the house and the shed and some at the side door. But, at least this year we can burn real firewood in our wood stove vs. the lumber scraps from Bullseye.
