Hurry Plant!

Having a day job that sends you across the country for weeks at a time greatly affects your planting schedule, especially when everything takes longer than you expect on a farm. Thankfully, I have a great set of friends who come out for planting parties. This weekend we tried to plant our dried beans, winter squash, corn, tomatoes, eggplant, okra, melons and misc. brassicas! A crazy, all out planting party! Thanks to Karen, Russ, Sean and Kath for giving up precious weekend moments (especially sunny weekend moments) to work on the farm.



Before we leave I quickly have to protect our Solanaceae crops with row cover to protect these heat loving crops from the colder nights of the NW.
