Finally Farming!


We planned to start planting for the CSA earlier this week but the ground was just too cold and wet.

It's always tempting to start before we have the right planting conditions but by now we know better. Planting in wet soil compacts the soil and creates less than desirable conditions for plants to grow. 

We finally were able to make some progress today. We planted peas - sugar snap peas and snow peas - and prepped the ground for potatoes and onions. Progress!
