This is another attempt to capture that wonderful acre of batchelor buttons that we saw in our stroll around Oxford. We saw the title of the field, "God's Acre" was on a hand-painted sign on the well a bit behind my view here.

We're harvesting again today for the hungry, and rewarding our volunteers with a light salad lunch. We'll be talking about herbs and using them in cooking - so we'll all make some lemon balm tea and lavender cookies.

Hope your day is grand!
