Preparing for Plant Sale

takes a lot of thyme, if you have sage advice on how to create more, please lettuce know.
Silly eh?    

We did get those last nine chickens, so we now have twenty altogether.  Egg production should be back up in a few, or a couple of, weeks.

The greens in the field are growing at an astonishing rate now that we have the soaker system hooked up.  Some pepper plants have started to grow . . . peppers, oddly enough.  The garlic seems to be involved in a race of some sort to be taller every hour - scapes should be visible any day now.  Over the next week or so, we'll be ousting everything from the little Greenhouse so we can get the peppers in there.

The Plant Sale Saturday, May 23 and again May 27 until done will free up space for tomatoes and cukes in the Large Greenhouse.  Our rototiller broke when the boys were making rows in one garden, so we've ordered another bigger, stronger-than-rocks one, which isn't here yet.  When it arrives, we'll have the space in two new gardens and one hugely enlarged garden for everything else.

In the meantime, you can see under "prices" here what's for sale.  You can reserve plants, as I think it's too soon to put them into the ground.  I can mind them for you.  

Just a few pictures of plants other than food plants.  I love spring, the season of lovely aromas.

Until next post, have a great every day.
Jo
