The planting has started

Even though it's only the last week of March, the weather has been almost ideal for Spring planting. Of course, we're aware of the dangers of planting too early, frosts or cooler weather, which is why we resist the urge to put  too many plants in the ground. That being said, we have planted several bucket crops of tomatoes and peppers, about 10% of what we will eventually plant.

We also planted several peppers in the ground  that were overwintered from last summer.  We also planted in the ground one of our healthier lemon trees that we started from seeds 3 years ago.

Prepping for the Spring planting

We have been busier in recent days turning beds, planting seeds and just readying the Backyard Garden for planting in a few short weeks. Of course our winter crops of greens, broccoli and carrots have been abundant too. 

Check out the broccoli and carrots picked today.

Thanks for all the calls and emails this past winter ordering what we already have in stock.

We can't wait till we are back at the markets. Forsyth begins May 7 and Monticello on May 22.
