We got it done! Planted 585 Yellow onions, 350 Red Onions and 255 Red potato cuttings. The Foreman showed up about noon with his crew and it took about an hour or so to knock it out.

I had to get my hands dirty

We also planted some beets for pickles. Our Grandmother always had beet pickles when we were kids and Mike knows how to make them.
So the root crops are in and another planting day on the 28Th of March will get most everything in except tomatoes and later producing crops.
Talk about perfect timing! It's starting to rain. A good shower will be great

  1. It must be so nice to be able to get your hands dirty, again! I am going crazy. We still have snow so the only thing that I have been able to do is to start onion and herb seedlings.I can't wait until Spring!!! (wailed in my most whiny brat-voice)
