Early Season Musings

Looking back at last spring compared to this spring is a reminder that you just never know what's ahead (not that I need reminding: half the time I don't know what's going on right now!). One year you're praying for rain, the next you're praying for it to stop! Farming is definitely a humbling experience and a great teacher of patience and gratitude.

We're off to a nice start this year. Got carrots, beets, scallions, brussels sprouts, lettuce, arugula, spinach seeded and cabbage and kale transplanted. This coming week we hope to get potatoes, peas, swiss chard, broccoli, parsnips, parsley and onions in the ground.

 Warm weather crops are waiting happily in their toasty flats :~).

 Happy Spring Everyone!
