Spring has sprung

The official start of spring has come and gone. A light dusting of snow yesterday morning and this morning seems like an appropriate New England welcome for springtime. Activity is really just starting on the farm. Though onions and leeks have been growing since the end of February, most of the other seedling in the greenhouse have just started to sprout, and many more have yet to be seeded. I have been busy tidying our seed-starting greenhouse, removing one year of rodents wreaking havoc, nibbling through row cover, nesting in nooks and crannies, and generally making everything a little (and sometimes a lot) messier. Today I finished cleaning out the last of what was untouched, re-securing the groundcloth and setting up the last greenhouse tables. Let the seeding begin!
