Jandy's

Spring is moving right along here on the farm. It seemed like a chilly start and plants weren't doing too much, but as you can see from the new photo, the lettuce has jumped into high gear.

With the crops that we started in our unheated greenhouse, we were able to go to the Farmers' Market last week with not only our lettuce and spinach, but kohlrabi, sugar snap peas, and broccoli. This week we should have a few green beans to take and possibly some of that beautiful cheddar cauliflower and some beets.

We've been really busy with weeding since the last rains and things are looking a little better. But it is still pretty dry for this time of year. We have our field tomatoes mulched and caged and they actually have some tiny tomatoes set. The onions look good, but are way too small, but the garlic is awsome! Andy is busy planting green beans and edamame beans every week for a continuous harvest. All the flowers are planted, squash is up. Even our sweet corn came up pretty good for a change.

With farming it's either too cold, too hot, too wet, or too dry. Today it's too dry and we're hoping that the next rains hits us with a good inch.

Have a good week!
