spring is here
March 22nd, 2010 | DustinHome Plate Organic Farm | The Farms
Yesterday was the first day of spring, so I celebrated by sowing seeds and getting in some afternoon baseball(1 for 3, rbi).
My tractor problems of last week were traced to a spring that had come disconnected from the governor. I only had to find someone who is older than my tractor(‘54 Ferguson) to help me out, thanks Jim. My tiller also got back into action, so the week was ultimately productive. I was able to sow Buff Oats, several types of Sweet Peas, Larkspur, and prepare more beds for transplanting onions, lettuce and brassicas in the week to come.
