What gorgeous weather we’re having! Perfect time to finish up seasonal chores - like strawing the strawberries. This protects them from the harsh winter temps and provides a dry bed for the fruits to lay on next spring. So thankful we got to do this in jackets instead of coveralls and no frozen fingers or toes! Happy Thanksgiving Everyone! 🙏🏻🦃
