I have the cutest gang of garden workers.
They are busy, running here ands there, up and down.
Sowing is their passion,
and most of all, sunflower seeds.
My busy garden workers are the squirrels :-) In spring and early summer they put sunflower seeds everywhere. I weed most of the seedlings, but a few are allowed to grow. Which means there are many sunflower in the garden now.

I love the view through my kitchen window tonight.
And I love the man who has filled this wheel barrow.

On the eastern side of our house there is an old flower bed. Already here when we bought the house in 2001. Already then overgrown with weeds.
Every second day I say to Terje, let´s try this, let´s try that. The other days I say, let´s just remove the whole bed and plant grass instead.
Now I have got another idea though. A good one I think :-) I will remove all the old plants and make the bed into a primula bed. Or a primrose bed as you would say in English.
That´s what I talk about in the video today :-)

With the lovely weather which continues, I am tempted to start early with the sowing. I know that there might still come nights with frost, but I don´t have room for all the pots indoors. I have an oven in the greenhouse which I can turn on during the cold nights, so hopefully it will be okay. I also believe that the plants will develop to be strong and stubborn with this start.
Of course the sowing is perpetuated at YouTube :-)

We have already had the first nights of frost, so when our little grandson came to see us today Terje took him out to put a winter coat on the roses.
A thick layer of pine needles around the necks of the roses,
and they should be well prepared for a long, hard winter.

From my kitchen window I can see out to the green house and the potato field. Late September means it is full time to harvest the potatoes.
My father has a path in our field where he grows three different types.
Two of the men in my life. My husband. My father. Working side by side.
The everyday pleasures,.
Life can´t be much better.
And one day soon I will make potato soup.

Just now there is no better place than The House in the Woods and The Blue Garden.
These lovely days of autumn.
When the world smiles.
And all you have to do is to smile along.

These lovely days of autumn. When the garden is thriving, producing a lot more than we can eat, sharing beauty for weeks and months to come.
The colours are different now from the height of summer.
The bumble bees are filling up as best they can.
The air is crisp and I breath deep, deep when I am out gardening.
