Spring Work Bees

IMG_0794It is time to shake off the long winter and prepare the grounds and gardens for guests.  We also need to wash and store the sugar bush buckets and lids for next year, and get the firewood ready for the sugar bush and fireplace. We have jobs for every age and skill set.

The more the merrier!!

If you are able to come, please let Sherry know at [email protected] so she can have enough food prepared.

Thank you!
