Certified Naturally Grown

     Well, we have been accepted into "Certified Naturally Grown"!!!  I don't know if I'll bother getting "Certified Organic".  I like CNG's tougher standards! 

     The greenhouse is far enough along that tomorrow, I'll be able to start the first seeds of the year......It's about time!!!!!

Starting on a Small Greenhouse

     We started on a small 12X16 PVC greenhouse this week and should be finished in a day or two, weather willing!  If you are interested in building a small inexpensive greenhouse/high tunnel, check out youtube and the net for the plans.  Mine Cost around $200 without the benches inside.  I'll try to post pics when it is finished.

     We will be start planting seeds within a week so that the seedlings will be ready mid-March.
