Spring at Jandy's

It's spring here on the farm at Jandy's! We have our hoophouses full with snap peas, cabbage, broccoli, kohlrabi, lettuce, spinach, radishes. Andy even has green beans popping through the ground. Our new asparagus beds are shooting up early asparagus but it's too muddy to get to them! Another year and the old beds will be torn out. We planted a new variety of purple asparagus this year and are anxious to see how it does.

Our Rhubarb has never been bigger. I don't know what happened to it. It's the 3rd year, so maybe it finally hit puberty. Our 3 chickens are laying 2-3 eggs a day which is plenty for the two of us. Three chickens for two people is a breeze ... you should try it!

Our Farmers Market is two weeks away (May 2) and we are anxious to see if the lettuce will be ready. On cold, windy days like this, we're not sure. But we'll be there with whatever we have!
