| Rachel and Fiona came out to help plant potatoes |
Finally this weekend the weather was nice enough – and we had time – for Jeff to plow part of our garden. We planted 4 rows of potatoes, some lettuce and spinach on Saturday. Easter Sunday was rather cold and rainy, so we did not do anything outside, other than a quick run. But the rain was good for the newly planted grapes as well as the garden.
Today, Jeff and Sam planted 20 lbs of peas – using the broadcast spreader on the tractor. Jeff followed up with the disc, to help cover up the peas. These peas take up about “3 tractor widths”, according to Jeff’s measurements, and we now have nearly two thirds of our garden planted.
