Spring Time


With a little help from the kids we started our garden planning and then some other peoples (unintentionally) about a month ago now. We started with a 70 Jiffy starter kit. It said that things would sprout in about 1-2 weeks. We had sprouts within 3 days. So many things had to be transplanted about 1 1/2 weeks later (the zucchini and cucumbers). The rest could easily wait the 2 weeks. Our bell peppers took 3 weeks to even amount to something.
These were the ones that weren't quite as big and will wait another week or so to be planted.
This morning it was a frigid 26, but the plants were safe inside--whew.
The happy planters.

I like that you are wearing a flannel shirt in true farmer fashion!

That flannel shirt is my absolute favorite.
