Spring Happenings




In February the hoop-houses were rototilled and the beds prepared for seeds and transplants




The transplants that germinated on heat pads indoors are moved to unheated hoop-houses to be hardened off. 


We spread a few tons of lime and plowed the first fields for spring plantings of potatoes, onions, broccoli, spinach and a few other vegetables.

The first plants are in the ground under the dry cover of the high tunnels.  The forecast is for a stretch of dry weather, so we hope to plant the first fields next week.
