Howdy folks,
The trees must be loving all this rain. It does make gardening a little challenging though... thank goodness for greenhouses! Anthony and I have been weeding the hoophouse, transplanting lettuce, and sowing spinach. This week we will also transplant cilantro, direct sow some radish and turnip and sow chives, kale, and chard inside for planting out next month. I am looking forward to doing some grafting this weekend... are you coming to the workshop?
The Spring Organic Gardening class starts soon. This will be a great class both for new gardeners and those who would like to increase their food production this year and get some personal consulting for a more successful garden. For details see below.
We will have kale, chard, garlic, parsley, and potatoes at the farm stand this Wednesday, 3:30 rain or shine. Workday is Friday 1- 5 as usual.
Living in rubber boots and raincoat,
Sakina
