The bee movie

Finally, finally the days are growing warm and long.

We start them each morning in clean white business shirts and work pants, and end them grubby and sore.

In the garden the lettuces are bolting, the broccoli are finishing up, the leeks and onions are slowly swelling and our summer faves like basil and tomato are finally safe(ish) to be planted out.

We've been weeding and planting and mulching and staking.

We've been slashing and mowing.

And irrigating.

And I've had a bee in my bonnet about making the garden more user friendly this season and have been marking EVERYTHING!!

Speaking of bees, my farmer boy made a cute little film of us in our bee gear visiting our bees a few days ago.

Check it out.



Bee good.

Vantastic :: The film

FOXSLANE VANTASTIC from Big Tree Films on Vimeo.

Last week, or the week before, my beautiful friend Ilana made this film.

It's funny sometimes to look back at how life happens. The geography and the history of it. How childhood friends become adult friends. How a bond made after we'd each had a particular nasty break up took us from too many tears and tequilas, right up the coast to Byron and all the way back down again to where we are now, with our food-growing husbands and our daughters and our creative adventures.

I have so much love.

So many stories to tell.

And so much respect. Even more so after watching this film come together.

I could go on and on. But I really want you to go and watch the film.

Go and watch the film.

I hope you love it.
