Seeds in the Ground!


 It was a busy week in the garden.  Almost all of the raised beds are prepped and ready for plants, seedlings in the greenhouses are getting bigger, and the weather is snowy one day and 65 the next.  It must be Spring!

 This week we were able to seed some snow peas, spinach, flowers, kale, beets, lettuce, carrots, radishes, and other cool weather crops.  We will continue planting successions every week so that we can have a continuous harvest throughout the Summer.  

If you stop by the garden you will see the white row covers set out over the beds.  These help to maintain the moisture in the soil and shelter the plants as they grow.  This week we will be setting out the black weed barrier to aid us in the quickly approaching battle with the unwanted, less-edible plants.

We hope you have a wonderful week and hope you are enjoying the warmer weather as much as we are!
