Happy Summer!

For those of us who bide our time through the cold weather months in anticipation of sunshine, warmth, and abounding greenery, we are in our glory with the arrival of summer. The signs are all around. These include

• Fantastic vegetables at the Farmers Market. Green beans, new potatoes, zucchini, garlic, greens, lettuce, kale...and very soon tomatoes! Keep checking the produce each Saturday morning at the market and treat yourself to homegrown, local goodies!
• The lovely flora and fauna. Flower gardens are at their peak during these early summer days. Take time to literally smell the roses, and the lilies, and the petunias.
• Opportunities for enjoying fresh air, lightning bugs, and fresh fragrances everywhere!

Be sure to stop by the Petersburg Branch of the Pike County Library Saturday mornings from 9-noon for the Farmers Market. Interested in becoming a seller yourself? All you need to do is stop by the Extension Agency office and pick up sellers agreement.

Here's to summer and all the wonderful gifts it brings!
