Welcome!

Welcome to the Frog Hollow Farm blog! I've been blogging since January 2010 and have switched from Blogger to Word Press, but I'm back to Blogger because, for me, it's easier to use. My husband and I live on a little farm in Northwest New Jersey. We have some chickens and a very large vegetable garden with asparagus and raspberries, and rows and rows of sunflowers, snapdragons and zinnias. Traveling, entertaining, gardening, spending time with family, studying Italian, blogging and reading keep us busy and happy. With all of this going on, moving towards a simpler life seems almost impossible but it's definitely a daily goal.

No winter lasts forever; no spring skips its turn.


No matter how long the winter...


Spring is sure to follow!



The snow and ice have melted, the ducks and geese are visiting, the peepers are peeping in the forest, the frogs and tadpoles are waking up, and the turtles will soon be basking in the sun at Frog Hollow Farm. 

I hope your first day of spring is full of sunshine and perpetual astonishment.

    Ah, spring will follow -- but winter seems to have beat spring this year-- we have a foot of "spring" snow on the ground from yesterday!

    Thanks for the reminder ... I made it through the winter and am so grateful for the sun. :) I love your bedroom makeover and your house is just so cozy and comfortable looking. Would love any comments you have on my house (pictures on my blog) as we prepare to put it on the market.

    Hi Ann Marie, Well Spring sure does feel like it has arrived here in gorgeous New Jersey! I am up in my studio with the French doors open to our balcony, the green and white stripe awning is open, I feel like I am in a tree house with a lovely breeze softly blowing in the room. I feel so blessed on this gorgeous Sunday to live out here in this splendid country! I hope all is well at Frog Hollow!
