Been Pretty Busy on the Farm

Well, the seedling did well in the Community Gardens Greenhouse and we moved them to the farm.

Here's all that needs to go into the ground soon.

We had a rainy, unusually cold Memorial Day weekend and that gave me a chance to plant onions, leeks and shallots. 

Grass-like stalks are onions - started in the house under lights in mid-February.

While, this weekend offers mid-July weather, which has made the peas, spinach and broccoli raab rather unhappy. 

Peas under cover to protect from rabbits.  Now, the cover is off so they don't over heat. 

Aforementioned crops like the cooler days of spring and mid-90s will prove difficult. All the protective row cover had to come off.  I will hope the rabbits are not interested!  Meanwhile, the heat produced flowers on the spinach and that means it is ready to go to seed.

This week, we got squash, melons, cucumbers, sweet potatoes  planted and still working on planting the tomatoes.

Sungold  cherry tomatoes planted!  Have to wait until mid-July to taste them.

Fingerling potatoes popping through and now it is getting time to weed.
