Welcome Spring!


  • First day of spring is also called the vernal equinox.  Vernal and equinox are Latin terms meaning spring and equal night respectively:  twelve hours of daylight and twelve hours of darkness (or there about).
  • Spring is a season for ideas of rebirth, rejuvenation, renewal, resurrection, and regrowth.

  • Plants begin to grow in Spring because of ample availability of water, light, warmth and soil (compost).
  • Flooding is common in and near mountainous area because of melting of snow.
  • Hurricane season begins in late spring and Tornado Alley is most active this time of the year
  • Spring marks the transition from Winter to Summer
  • The sun rises in the earlier hours of the morning and sets later on in the afternoon, the days get slightly warmer

  • Spring flowers start to appear, birds start building their nest and the farmers deliver new born lambs
