Plants a-groweth!

Spring is here, the snow has melted, and WHAM--the workload just quintupled in an instant. The ground is dry enough to play in, so its prep time! I dug some parsnips yesterday--the gophers left a few for me. They were so sweet and juicy sauteed in butter with steak and fresh greens last night. YUM! We've been sleeping in the greenhouse with our plant starts, just because it's nice to sleep under the stars without the rain/sleet/snow/frost action that spring can deliver. Here's what it looks like at night just before bed. Dave added an extra rack this month suspended from the ceiling that you can see in the top left. Now we can fit 13 more flats, plus they are great for warm-weather crops like tomatoes and peppers.
Deep breath...and in we go!!
