Picking, Picking and more Picking!

The days are starting early for most of us around here now. We have to get up quite early to get the spinach picked and washed before it wilts. Also, the cows need to get milked before our second oldest son, Jesse, can get to the fields to get done what needs done. We are picking daily, radishes, spinach, collard greens, heirloom lettuces and tomatoes out of the greenhouse. The tomatoes are finally ripening, Yeah! All those long winter months of keeping them warm is finally paying off. The strawberries are just about ripe and then that will be added to our list as well. The greenhouse was pretty much cleaned out from what was sold as bedding plants and others that were moved to our cold frame. Now it is overfull with pumpkins, winter squash and gourds flats germinating to be planted in 2 weeks. Never a dull moment! Hope you are all enjoying this cool and WET spring. See ya at the markets!
