Catchin Some Rays

As mentioned last week, greenhouse preparations are in full swing. This week has been focused on starter plant cuttings for our greenhouse business and starting our tomato plants. Tomatos are one of the farm’s largest crops and we take great pride in growing several varieties of red’s and heirlooms. Just imagine, one of those delicious fresh picked fruits sliced with just a smidge of salt and pepper. For a tomato purist, it doesn't get any better than that!

One of the best things about working in the greenhouse is the warmth and sun light it provides the plants and us…who would have thought it was possible to get a sun tan in January?! The swimwear is still hidden in the back of the closet but warm days tempt it to move its way closer to the front.
