Beth! gorgeous art, really. Thanks for sharing.
My wife and I are considering buying property in Mabou, and since we've never been, we were wondering if you could now share your insight with us on the place. Two questions:
1- Would you ever move there if it were possible?
2- Even May looks chilly. When would you say it warms up enough to plant a veggie garden?
Hi Mike - Thank you for the comment - Yes, I would recommend Mabou as a place to live. Summer is a little late in coming and there can be frosts as late as June although it is 30'C today...If that helps with the veggie garden question - a polytunnel might be a good investment. The people here are lovely and very proud of their heritage. I hope this helps and good luck to you!
