Enjoying the rural lifestyle! We got the 1948 Farmall Cub running and doing some work! What a hoot! Placitas offers many different lifestyles---we enjoy the old acequia and our orchard and vineyard.

First time irrigating the orchard this spring! Wonderful acequia system in the Village of Placitas. The apples are blooming and lovely. I enjoy the sound of the bees and critters in the trees. 
Spring in New Mexico feels sunny and warm!

Time to think about a vegetable garden! You should check out the great information from the New Mexico Extension Service at http://aces.nmsu.edu/pubs/_circulars/CR457/

There is very specific information available about when to plant, how to plant, how close to plant, types of veggies that do well in NM. Lots of great details.

I plan on having a great garden this year with at least tomatoes and chile! Photos from previous years!
