The Harvest And The Moon In Maine


A local Harvest Moon shot taken here in Maine.
You should have seen it over the ocean , 
with the dozens of sailboats still moored in our harbors.
It was gorgeous.


I am adjusting to my first few weeks of full time work....
I am just now feeling better about it.

I have never punched a 'time clock' in my life.
The punching of 'the time clock' is a complete post all by itself.




Anyway......this is what I did on my day off with my Mom.
We drove to Beth's Farm in Warren Maine.
The drive there was gorgeous.....
rolling hills, horse farms, and agriculture farms.
I LOVE ROLLING HILLS!!!!


I dream of what it would be like to ride my horse on those hills,
 and through the meadows which are still filled with field flowers.
He would have loved that!!!


Back to the harvest.....
PUMKINS.


Indian Corn
The corn looked like hundreds of garnets.
Beautiful.



The last time I saw brussel sprouts like this
I was in Paris.


And I actually grabbed an apple off a tree.
It was yummy.
Now I can say that I have picked apples......well, one apple.


And we have wineries here too.


I love beets.
Everything is fresh off the farm....
like in back of this building.


They even have hay for the horse farms.


Aren't these adorable ?



We drove to lunch past this lake.
There are bazillions of lakes and rivers here.



Have a lovely weekend.

Hope everyone is well and enjoying the fall season.

  2. Stunning! I was in Maine last weekend, my first visit and I LOVED it! I cannot wait to come back and in fact we are starting to look for a house or property there.

    Your trip with your mom looks like it was relaxing and beautiful!

    Good luck with your new full time position!

  4. What an extraordinarily abundant place...with such healthy produce. Brussels sprouts on the stalk...I haven't seen that in forever...it looks so sculptural. And now I finally get the "harvest moon" reference...in an "aha" moment...a northern hemisphere thing!

  5. Hi Renee...just catching up with your recent posts, wondering how you are settling into life in Maine now that you have passed a few seasons. It sounds like you have come into a great space..people, family, location. I can appreciate it all. Missing your daughter, I get that too. Wishing you well in New England...from Saigon.

  6. This post came out so great. I had a great day.
    Driving to Union for Lunch at Hannibals was a dissapointment.
    It was a new owner and not the food I expected. Sorry.
    Well, maybe someday we will get a real NY Deli in Rockland.
    You did a beautiful job. Now I need help with the Party.
    Love Mamma

  15. With 2 college degrees I spent 5 years punching a time clock. Would not trade those years for anything. Horticulture is a tough profession, tougher still to make money at. Worst part of my job? My family with their rude comments about being blue collar, will end up a bag lady, and obviously embarrassing them.

    After 3 decades, who has the Cheshire cat smile now?

    Garden & Be Well, XO Tara
