Putting the seed in the ground

Everyone was working hard to help get our first seed in the ground, it's looking great.

Metal recycled

We filled an entire roll off bin with metal we found on the property. Good for recycling bad thinking that many people thought it was ok to dump here.

I hope that's over with.

30lbs of happiness

Today we are putting our first seed in the ground. This Soil Builder Mix from Peaceful Valley will help build our nitrogen and make our soil plantable for our summer crops.
It's a beautiful thing.

Tomato

Our favorite tomato from last year.

Good thing I have a few seeds left. Baker Creek is not offering it this year. I'll have to grow out my stash for my seed bank and grow for production again in 2013.
