A fun week! Lots of cucumbers and zucchini were started, more crops seeded in out in the garden, the wintered over spinach was pulled in the hoophouse (thanks Gwen) after the last harvest. We weeded the peas that are growing tall. We are constantly dragging those darn tomato plants around…too cold, too windy, too sunny, too wet…..it’s always something-but it is worth it as they look GREAT this year.
The tomato plant and other garden veggie plant sale starts today in our driveway and we are excited to see the plants travel on to good homes.
