Today was a great reminder that new beginnings can grow into big things. Since selling Our Urban Farm in Minneapolis, we have been carrying around a carefully packed zip-lock bag of acorns collected from the sacred oak tree from our former back yard. They represent one of the many things we hoped to bring with us from the magical place we called home for 31 years. Our plan is to plant some at the new home we are building in Montpelier, Vermont. Having never germinated oak trees before, and having read that it can be a bit tricky, we may have over-done our collection of seeds from the mother tree. We carefully packed 54 acorns in damp sphagnum moss and put them in the refrigerator.
