Is hung with bloom along the bough,
And stands about the woodland ride
Wearing [pink] for Eastertide.
…
And since to look at things in bloom
Fifty springs are little room,
About the woodlands I will go
To see the cherry, [as hens do].”
-- from the poem ‘Loveliest of trees, the cherry now’ by A. E. Housman [with minor corrections by Hilltops free range pasture-raised hens]
We, both hens and man, are incredibly lucky to be near Young, the Cherry Capital of Australia.
