May 20, 2010: The farm in Spring


May 20, 2010: Bumblebee at work in Blue Ray.

Bumblebee yard, May 20, 2010. We brought in bumblebees this year to help pollinate the blueberries. The electric fence is to keep out a bear who visited us the last two years. It worked.


Patriot blueberries in bloom May 20, 2010. Note the blossoms on the ground which drop off after they have successfully pollinated
