It was 12 degrees here yesterday morning but by 2 in the afternoon, the temp was around 25 degrees and I was stir-crazy so I left the house to hunt for teeny cushion moss. All of a sudden, these things are HOT, HOT! I've started selling to people building fairy gardens and they are loving those little buggers!
After about 10 minutes in the woods, I learned the value of carrying a pocket knife. Those mosses were frozen solid in the ground. Back to the house I went and got the knife. That worked like a charm! In fact, they looked better than usual when I arrived home and they were thawed out. So off I go today to get some more with my knife in hand and lots of little zippy bags. Look for a bunch to be listed on all sites this afternoon!
This blog is about my travels and hiking as I collect mosses for my terrariums for selling. I hike nearly every evening. The 600 acres surrounding my home are ever changing. Every hike brings a new discovery. If you are reading this, you most likely love mosses. You might design terrariums or vivariums. Or perhaps you just enjoy reading about life in the woods. If you are interested in my mosses, drop me a line or check me out on Ebay. My Ebay user name is pinchingpennies4now.
