But seed orders need to be prepared, crop plans set, rotations reconfigured, expansions planned for, workshops to attend, marketing to prepare....it really is busy right now. And this will continue for awhile, with the addition of seed starting in February, irrigation units being built or bought, and whatever else comes along.
I really enjoy the cycle of our growing year. Everything fits in somewhere, with some hectic times in May and again in August. The growing cycle is truly one thing that can be counted on, although sometimes it's early, sometimes late, sometimes rainy, sometimes dry....but it always comes.

| The hoophouse windows are frosted over, but it is nice and toasty inside |
