So even though we seem to be jumping around in seasons it really is supposed to be spring so that means gardening. There might be snow on the ground but our first batch of lettuce is now in the ground(in the greenhouse) and we are just waiting for the tomatoes to be big enough to put into the new greenhouse. Our oldest greenhouse is packed full with little plants growing away which will in no time at all turn into full grown onions, leeks, more lettuce, mesclun greens, tomatoes, peppers, eggplants, and cucumbers.

While the snow puts a halt to putting much more vegetables in the ground there is still plenty to do on the farm. So its off to getting the fences ready again for putting the sheep to pasture, shearing them when they finally dry out for all this wet, and just the never ending maintenance that comes with a farm.

Enjoy the little bit of snow while you can! (Its perfect snowball snow :))
