dirt and bees


Morning All!
This has been a seedy week.  Depending on the weather we're in or out of doors, as there's ample tasks to keep us busy in both places.  We've started many flats indoors, including the first round of brassicas (broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, brussels), this past weekend.  There's arugula and spinach growing in a spot by the barnyard. Thankfully some rain finally came, and watered in the newly sown cover crops of oats and clover.

In other farm-y, ecology news, there's 2 neat events at St. Lawrence this weekend.  Both are free and open to the public.
