View of the greenhouse...things sure grow quickly, and we are eager for the weather to warm up so we can clear it out a bit!

Eggplants, peppers, and basil.

Cucumbers that were planted a week ago are starting to germinate.

Our old 1947 Ford 2N tractor with the bed former/drip tape layer attachment.

The bed former and tractor at work in the field.
The bottom photo shows clean rows ready to be planted.

The tulips are really showing their color.

The new fruit trees are blossoming. Can't wait 'til they get in the ground.

The start of the 3 acre fencing project.
Introduction to post pounding 101 Lesson 1:

unless you have really long arms. Believe me they'll feel long
after pounding all those posts! Hah!

Our faithful high tunnel still producing greens.
