Preparations for the Big Day

As April 1st quickly approaches, we are putting the final preparations in place to begin our outdoor planting.  After this rain storm passes, we will be able to transplant our broccoli, cauliflower, and cabbage seedlings outside under a protective plastic dome.  We will also directly sow cold weather crops including peas, spinach, lettuce, chard and radishes into our pallet and box gardens. 


During a break in the rain, Seamus helped me erect our plastic hoop gardens.  It was very muddy work but I firmly believe a little mud is soothing for the soul.


Once some of seedlings have been moved outside, we will have room under the indoor grow lights to start our tomatoes.  The beginning of gardening season is such an exciting time on the farm!
