Hooray, For Spring Rhubarb

in homesteading •  7 years ago 

20180331_175042.jpgI was out poking around the farm this afternoon, looking for signs of new life. Hooray!! After all the snow, and ice the Rhubarb still decided to pop up through the ground. It's always one of earliest producers here, a sure sign that the seasons are changing. Rhubarb, has a distinct tart flavor, but is said to have many health benefits. https://www.organicfacts.net/health-benefits/fruit/rhubarb.html
The plants we have have been handed down in the family for many years, making them over a 100 years old. We continue to separate them every couple years and share them with friends. Here's to a tangy season!!
