Over the last 8 or 9 days, the weather has prevented much of the garden work from progressing. The total rainfall has been in the order of 5 inches (about 12 cm) since May Long Weekend, the field has become a soupy mess and to top it all off, the threat of a frost became a reality in places early this week. This creates a bit of a delay and since thumb-twiddling is low on my list, I had to find something to do. This is when my wood-working background came back to life.
We have decided to carry a line of wood products along with our produce, baking and preserves that we sell at the local farmers markets. Most items that we have created are simply finished by sanding smooth, no stain, oil or varnish required. Most items are designed for use in the kitchen and these items have been recreated from plans handed down from my Dad who did woodwork for a living.
Following are photos of the items we will have ready for Saturday, June 11th from 9am to noon at the Cloverbelt Farmers Market in Oxdrift, Ontario at the community hall. Hope to see you there!
