May’s Newsletter!

Happy May Everyone!!!

I think this is officially my favorite time of year. Everything is sprouting in the garden and in the woods and fields, like old friends coming out of hibernation. The skunks and opossums are waddling around the yard, looking for grubs and other tasty treats, and the birds are looking for nesting sights. Here are a few colorways from our collections that reflect the beauty of Spring in Vermont, and most of North America:

Maples in the Spring

Blue Cohosh

Cherry Blossom

Cedar Waxwing

Baltimore Oriole

Carolina Wren

Cicada

Honey Bee

Painted Lady Butterfly
