Wow, what a beautiful weekend! Thank goodness it stopped raining for a few days, as we are painfully behind where we would like to be in regards to weed control, planting, and growing veggies.
We were able to plant some seeds, such as peas, beans, beets, and the like. We got 200 pounds of potatoes planted as well. We transplanted some more sweet corn and our first tomatoes outside. And the strawberries are now mulched between the rows. It's amazing what you can get done in a long weekend!
We're still behind, though. We still do not have enough veggies getting ripe each week to fill our subscriptions. We may even have to postpone our start of our veggie subscriptions a week. We usually try to start at least by mid-June, but we're afraid it may be later in June before we start.
So for a few more weeks we'll just take everything to the farmers market in Morgantown. The Cumberland market starts this week, but we don't have enough to go to both.
Pray for more sunshine!
