A Grilling Party at the Farm

Posted by Ghenghis Khan

We had a lot of commotion recently at the farm.  Martha was involved with filming her very first grilling special called Grilling Secrets of the Master Chefs, premiering tonight, June 24th at 8 p.m. ET on Hallmark Channel.  There was a big party where the guests got to eat all of the delicious food and, …

A Garden Tour Means Cookies!!! Or Not

Posted by F&S

Some of you commented that you couldn’t see the images from Monday’s blog about G.K. wanting to be a squirrel chaser.  Therefore, we made an executive decision to let it run a second day in hopes that it could be viewed by all.  Our apologies, but it seems that our blog server is having some …

Exploring Bar Harbor

Exploring Bar Harbor

Posted by Francesca

On Martha’s blog today, she posted a lot of beautiful photos of planting the giant urns on the Skylands terrace.  When the work was complete, Uncle Carlos suggested a drive to Bar Harbor so that Ryan could see some of the local flavor.  It’s always a fun town to visit.

Driving With Uncle Carlos to Maine

Last Friday, Uncle Carlos was driving a load of plants up to Skylands, our home in Maine.  We absolutely love being with him and asked Martha if we could travel with him, instead of traveling with her.  She didn’t seem to mind.

Peonies and Rain Don't Mix

The other day, between raindrops, we Frenchies picked some amazing tree peonies to decorate the house.  We thought we would go back to the border to gather some more, but there’s one big problem – it’s been raining and oh, so dreary!

For the Love of Allium

As Martha wrote on her blog today, we’ve been getting much too much rain and we, dogs, couldn’t get outside too much to explore.  Many things are blooming, or beginning to bloom in the garden, including all the allium, and we finally got to enjoy their beauty.

Sharkey Bakes a Soufflé

Posted by Sharkey

I was in the mood to bake a soufflé and I asked Thomas Joseph from the TV kitchen if he would be willing to come to Bedford and give me a hand.  A soufflé is a combination of custard and beaten egg whites and when it comes out of the oven, it should be puffed …

Tracking Wild Animals

Tracking Wild Animals

Posted by Francesca

On yesterday’s blog, I was out hunting for dogwood trees and found some in the woods.  After satisfying my dogwood urge, and since I was already in the woods, I decided to partake in some animal tracking, one of my favorite pastimes.  There are so many interesting scents to pick up and follow in the …

Searching For Dogwood

Searching For Dogwood

Posted by Francesca

There are so many flowering trees at our farm in Bedford, but for some reason, Martha hasn’t planted one of my favorite varieties, the dogwood.  I’ve been reading up on dogwood and from my findings, it seems that the bark of one of the European species, when boiled in water, was once use for washing …
