Getting our Hands Dirty



Thank God, I’m a Country Boy. Oh, yes, a few more days of great springtime weather on Our Little Farm.




Today, we got a lot accomplished in the garden. Lynne was busy in the morning with the cultivator and chewed up the grasses and weeds growing between the rows. We prepared more terrain for planting and got busy getting dirt under our fingernails.



We planted the second batch of our Ambrosia sweet corn. We planted six more rows in this batch which will ripen up one month after our first batch. We will plant the third and final planting in about three weeks.



We planted a row of crookneck(yellow) squash, a row of spaghetti squash, a row or zucchini, two rows of okra, a row of mustard greens, a row of turnip greens, a row of eggplant, a row of beets and two rows of carrots. We also transplanted 9 more Celebrity tomato plants.



As you can see we have been busy in the garden. Stay tuned for more updates from Our Little Farm.
