Through wind, snow and ice...the garden center builds on!

Like much of CNY, Early Bird is dealing with its fair share of winter
weather. Luckily, a little snow isn't enough to slow our progress.

This extra large heater (the garden center is fitted with three of these),
everyone is able to stay comfortably warm on even the chilliest of days. 

Getting everything ready to pour concrete down the center
walkway. There are garage doors at either end, making the task
of bringing in more plants a far easier one.

Half the concrete is finished. Adding a few bricks cut at
an angle to meet the central aisle.

Just a few more...

The aluminum frames for the benches. The vinyl-coated
mesh bench tops should be arriving shortly.

Mr. Sheldrake (owner of Early Bird Farm) making sure
 everything is level.

Making sure everything is nice and tight.

Some nice stone work around the water pump. And to
think that was all just plain old river rock a few months ago...

Meanwhile in the greenhouses...this princess flower
has no idea that it below freezing outside.

Just a little something to tide you over for a little while longer. This neon geranium is bright enough to make anyone
smile on a cloudy winter day.
