One of the most important tasks is watering. Boys and water seem like a good mix as Gavin sure likes to help. He only sprayed me once, claimed it was an accident........hmmm. These plants go in and out of the garage on a trailer, hardening off, getting ready for the field. We hope to plant the potatoes, onions, broc., and cool season greens this week. Maybe risk a plot of sweetcorn. Even though I know I it is too early. Will I ever learn?
This one 'claims' to one of the 3 helpers on this posting, but I think I have to disagree. Newfoundlands are 'supposed' to be working cart dogs, and water dogs. He is a water dog all right. Waltzes right over to the water dish. As far as a 'working class dog,' Buck considers it 'work' just to get up!!!! =) I told Frank it should be 'Buy 10 plants, get dog free.!'You can see he is on the pallet, ready to be shipped off, I hate to think of THAT shipping charge.
No question..... Glenn is one of the 3 farm helpers here. We just started digging the bareroot daylilies for the farmers market Sat., May 2 from 8-12, hint hint. We will be washing them this week, tagging and getting them ready for YOU! Frank decided we needed another John Deere toy and bought this handy dandy tractor 2 yrs. ago. I don't know how we got by w/o it!!! We dug plants we have had planted for 2-3 yrs., and put new and different varieties back in for 2011!Second Garden class is this Monday, you can still join, vegetables is this weeks topic. Email me if interested.
