CSA and the farm

   On March the seventh we will be attending a CSA event at the Arlington Heights, IL library--we do enjoy this one and hope to see a lot of people there. Also, there will be several other CSA's represented.

    Today we took some time off to go to St. Joseph, MI to look at the frozen Lake Michigan--it was cool!

   Nearly ready to open the greenhouse to start planting--will start to sanitize   the tables, plug trays, walls, and tools, this prevents any diseases that might have crawled  in. It is quite a pleasure to work in the greenhouse when the weather is freezing out and the little seedlings are just popping up--reminds us the season will soon be here.

   If things go well there might be purple skinned potatoes in the CSA baskets this year. Not sure on the sprouts yet--we are growing a second round of them(tweaked how we are doing them). Will have them for sale at the library.
