One of the joys of spring is the appearance, and fragrance, of lilacs. Most old farmsteads and gardens have at least one lilac tree. A Potsdam couple has started a second career of bringing lilacs back to more yards.About ten years ago, Janice and Cliff Westerling sold their home in the village of Potsdam and bought a 50-acre farm near West Potsdam. Now retired, they're focusing on growing and selling lilacs. Their gardens at Moore's Hill Farm include more than 30 varieties. One of the most fragrant flowers in the plant world, lilacs are available in lots of colors - including royal purples, presidential blues and creamy yellows.Todd Moe stopped by for a tour of the Westerling's nursery and display gardens. It's still too early for blossoms. Janice says the flowering season is typically Mother's Day to Father's Day, but she and Cliff love to show off the plants to curious visitors. So, why lilacs? Cliff says the hardy varieties are easy to grow in the North Country, despite pesky deer. [full story]
