LINDA ZIEDRICH

I write about food from my
home in Oregon’s Willamette
Valley, where I continually
experiment with the fruits and
vegetables that I grow. My blog is meant to cultivate an appreciation for fruits and vegetables as they come from the Earth–and for the land, breeding, and labor that make them good to eat–and to share advice from an old-fashioned cook and gardener about the best ways to use and preserve the produce of our
gardens, fields, and
orchards.

The New Queen Must Be Laying


Such a loud hum came from my favorite cherry tree yesterday that I thought I had a swarm on my hands. But on this sunny spring morning the bees were only happily collecting food for their babies. Like the forager pictured here, all the bees buzzing around my head had heavy loads of pollen on their legs.
