Once Upon a Day... Cowichan

Vancouver Island Celebrates Summer!

 Roots to Breath, Dona Anderson


It's fun to share with you today a bit about our part of the world.

This video is from Cowichan which is a couple hours south of us here on Vancouver Island, off the west coast of British Columbia, Canada.

We're also celebrating our summer as the garden is filling out and changing each week.  As usual every year has more or less than other years so we're still waiting to figure that out.  Our pear tree had flowers and then no pears, so I guess it is taking the year off to grow bigger and stronger for next year.  I'm loving the blueberries, and the blackberries are starting to ripen. 

The tomatoes are also ripening and there is a farm a few miles from us and other farmer's markets to get whatever else we need. My husband is already happily sharing tomatoes with the neighbors, and I just remembered there's yellow and green beans that we have to eat!

It's very yummy to get all the fresh produce in the summer for as long as we can!

I hope you enjoy this little piece of our paradise in this video!

Have a great weekend and take care!

  

What season are you celebrating where you live?
