Just one more week….

With the official start of the spring season starting next week panic mode is setting in.  Thoughts like...Will this plant stop growing so that it can be used next week? Or will this plant grow more to allow us to use it in the first week of deliveries?  It has been long days of working and weeding to make sure that all is perfect for your first delivery of produce.

Today, the last of the succession planting of radishes have gone into the ground so that is it on the planting of the spring crops. With tilled areas quickly running out of space, the remainder of the kohlrabi found a new home to call their own (for now).

So now we have all the summer plants, the bean, tomatoes, peppers just to name a few standing in the wings to wait their time to get in the ground.  It is hard to believe that in a few weeks we will start the transformation to the summer season.

Peppers and tomatoes waiting to be planted.

That is all we have for now.  It is back outside to finish watering and start that never ending chore of weeding.  It is a very time demanding task, however if not, we will have a garden / yard full of the flowers below…

Everything has beauty, but not everyone sees it.  Zen proverb.

This is the common Vetch plant…member of the pea family and a pretty flowering (and nitrogen fixing) but invasive weed that will take over your garden! Not a friend to the gardener.

Till next time…
