Second Annual Plein Air at South Jersey Lavender Farm
This past weekend we hosted our Second Annual Plein Air Competition. Professional artists from New Jersey, Pennsylvania, and Maryland came to the farm to paint our lavender and elderberry fields in bloom.
It was a beautiful day and so much amazing artwork was created! As an artist myself, it has always been my goal to utilize our farm as a place for other artists to retreat, create artwork, and connect.
You are invited to see the artwork created and meet the talented artists:
Opening reception: Friday, June 21 from 6-8PM
Gallery Exhibition: June 21 - July 19
Riverfront Renaissance Center of the Arts
22 N High Street
Millville, NJ 08332
SAVE THE DATE: Next year’s Summer Plein Air will be Saturday, June 7, 2025.
Stay tuned for more upcoming events and unique ways to visit our farm that are authentic to us. You can sign up for our email newsletter - www.copper knoll farms.com

    • @copperknollfarms
      @copperknollfarms 5 днів тому

      We have a video about that coming up! If you want to harvest for bouquets for fresh or dried it’s best to cut them when 1/3 of the flowers are open on each stem. This will help keep the buds intact if you decide to dry them.

    If you want to keep checking you should put a camera in there if you can because it is illegal to harm harass them or interfere with the nesting process

    • @copperknollfarms
      @copperknollfarms 27 днів тому

      Thanks for the comment but we are trained and under supervision of the NJ Bluebird Society. Quickly checking boxes as part of actively monitoring of a bluebird trail is not harmful or harassing them. Also, The Migratory Bird Treaty Act protects the removal of active *native* birds nests and eggs. We are simply recording data from our trail and reporting it to NJBBS for research purposes.

      @SouthJerseyGirl61 Місяць тому

      On the "eviction" comment. As a monitor it is your responsibility to keep the native birds safe. There are many non-natives that will kill our native birds and are not "allowed" to nest in the boxes. For more info you can go to North American Bluebird Society or find your local Bluebird chapter.

    Are you burning wet firewood? 🔥 Here’s 3 ways to check the moisture content to see if it’s seasoned and ready to use for your next fire. First, you can look for visual signs that your wood is dry. If there are cracks on the ends of the log, it’s a good indication the wood is dry. These cracks are also known as checks. Dry firewood also tends to have splinters due to the lack of moisture. Be sure to wear gloves when handling firewood 🧤 You can also do a sound check. Logs with too much moisture make a dull thud while seasoned wood makes a hollow sound that can ring. 🔔 The most reliable way of checking firewood is using a moisture meter. To get an accurate reading, split a piece of wood in half and insert the prongs in the middle. If it’s under 20% - your firewood is ready to use! 🪵 Burning dry wood maximizes the heat produced and reduces excess smoke. Need a moisture meter?

    🏡 It’s best to keep your firewood at least 5-10 feet away from your home. This will help keep bugs out of your house. Place your pile in a convenient location close to where you will be bringing it into your home. ⬆️ Elevate your wood off the ground with pallets, cinder blocks, 4x4s, or a firewood rack. This will help allow air to circulate and prevent your pile from getting wet and deteriorating. Use what you have readily available. 🐿️ Stack your split wood to minimize gaps to prevent animals like snakes, mice, or squirrels from living in your pile. ☔️ Keep your pile dry by covering the top with a tarp. Be sure to leave the sides open to allow air to circulate. You can also store your firewood in a shed or covered area. How do you store your firewood?
