Spring Issue 2013

Hello Spring’ Well, by the calendar so far. Spring in the
Pacific Northwest can mean rain one minute and bright
sunshine the next. Living in this part of the country affords
us knowing the difference when asked, “Is it raining?
With an answer of no, its: misting, sprinkling, drizzling, or
pouring. We know when the drops are “big” or just aver
age. We don ‘t go many places without a hooded jacket or
an umbrella and can tell visitors by their lack of either. Just
the same I would rather have rain than hurricanes or tornados or deep, long lasting snow. Rain is what keeps
Washington, the Evergreen State.
The spring bulbs have begun to bloom and provide cheer to
our landscapes. And with Easter right on our doorstep, some
of you may be interested in the world of chicks, yellow fuzzy
ones, learn more about what it takes to keep them.
 
 

April is Arbor Day” month for the
nation. Ideally, think about planting a
tree. No space for a tree, then plant
a shrub, or perennial plant.
We look forward to seeing you at our
outreach education workshops!
