Sea Berry or Sea Buckthorn

10/30/2014

This is one of our Sea Berry/ Sea Buckthorn Trees, which we started from seed in late January.  This year it's getting rooted in.  The second year it's supposed to have much more growth.  We'll see, but so far so good/happy.  A family member fondly remembers all the wondrous virtuous of the "Sea Buckthorn" from her childhood through a young adult, while living in Russia.  She shared and provided an introduction for us into this amazing tree.  One of the ladies who currently manages Teal Farm in Vermont, refered to it as Sea Berry.  She graciously gave us a tour of Teal Farm this summer, sharing with us the growing habits and many uses of the Sea Berry, as well as her vision of a change in direction for the United States agricultural system as we know it.

    I am T-  the other half -of the dream-wrangler team, in the Orchard adventure.  
    Mother to 3 amazing adult sons, and grandmother to the biggest rays of sunshine in our lives. Our oldest grand-daughter, we used to call "Little A", but now she is medium to tall-sized.  She is "Miss A" now. The last couple of  years she has greeted a brother, "Little R" , and this past fall, "Little Miss I" and another mister, who will be known as "Little K", arriving any day now!

    Then there's H.- I'll let him elaborate at some point,  but in my opinion, he's the best seaweed wrangler west of the Atlantic. He remains our artist. in residence, and contines to astound T with his penchant for unusual garden-type installations.  He lives to dance a jig with his grand kids, and teach them all about gardens, growing and such.
