Hello Everyone This is on a Tuesday afternoon and the sky has that whitish, gray color again. We were blessed with 3 days of sunshine and blue sky. It was a prelude of what is to come. Warmer weather and Springtime! It is still February so I imagine we will get some more snow yet. [...]
Good afternoon everyone, 1-23-23 We have had a very mild January without snow until yesterday. It began snowing mid forenoon and just kept on. It is a very wet snow possibly 4-5 inches this morning. The ground is white and the sky is about the same color. The tree branches look like they have a [...]
Good Afternoon Everyone, 12- 17- 22 We are having snow flurries today; it certainly feels cold. Brrr! Even though it was only 29° this morning how will it feel when it is 10°? Are we thankful enough for our good warm houses? I feel sorry for the folks that don’t have that blessing. Christmas will [...]
Good Evening Everyone, I hope everyone enjoyed these beautiful sunny days we were given. It was a good time to finish cleaning out the gardens. Since I didn’t plant my potatoes until the first of July the plants are still nice and green. I will probably wait awhile before digging them. Some green tomatoes were [...]
Good Afternoon Everyone, 8-15-22 I am sitting outside the store at the picnic table writing and hoping for an inspiration as to what would be a suitable letter to send to all our customers both near and far.

At the Ashery, “Local” means grown right here in Amish Country. Summer produce also brings [...]
Good morning everyone, 6-13-22 We are blessed with a warm summer day. It was 69° this morning and is slightly humid. I stepped outside the front door of the store and tried to absorb the beauty of the flowers that make up the display against the front of the store. They are beautiful! Then off [...]
Good morning, 5.18.22 This is Wednesday forenoon; we are having a cloudy and cool day. Temperature is at 59°. I hope it will rain. We got a little rain on Monday for which we are grateful for. The sunny days we had recently were also really enjoyed. Gardens are started. Rhubarb and Asparagus are doing [...]
