  1. All the vegetables are coming up fast and strong this year. I think everyone is going to be happy with how early some things will be.
  2. All my tomatoes and their tender little friends look great after being tucked into bed last night. Hopefully no more frost risk!?
  3. Soon we won't have to eat cardboard lettuce and tomatoes. Yeh!
  4. Five weeks until the Farmers Market opens. Beets, carrots, onions, garlic, tomatoes and peppers all well on their way!
  5. Im trying a new type of sweet pepper this yr called CHOCOLATE. I don't think it tastes like a kit-kat bar but should be tasty none the less.
  6. Tomatoes and peppers are all planted! I can taste them already. Yum, yum, yum.
  7. I'm outside yesterday and heard some load honking in the air. Could it be true-Are the Geese back? Yes two flocks flying over to Winnipeg!
  8. Cleaning up the greenhouse today & Its 22 degrees C in there. Feels like summer and I'm thinking of planting some lettuce for fun.
  9. New seed just in. Exciting! Little tomato and pepper plants will be starting soon. All the nice weather has got me dying to go seed somthing
  10. Big storm on Thusday missed us and now we are on day 60 of no substantial rain! Its dry and I love it! Better than flooding any day.
  11. Another Farmers' Market today. We've got butternut squash, Red River beets, tomatoes, more fresh beans and lots of other great stuff!
  12. Excited for another great Farmer's Market tomorrow. We're bringing our largest trailer full ever!
  13. My grandfather's birthday today. He's 86! We talked about how he used to do all the work with horses back in the day. Amazing.
  14. Farmers' Market went great yesterday. Our fresh green beans, peas and tomatoes were big hits! I can't wait until next saturday.
  15. Got a little bit of rain on Friday night - just enough to cut the dust down for a few hours. I should probably turn on the sprinklers.
  16. The crops are looking great and the sun just keeps on coming. The corn is growing like crazy and the carrots are almost ready. I love it!
  17. Big delicious beets coming this week! And perhaps some baby zucchini. Potatoes are flowering. That means, yes baby spuds coming soon. Yummy.
  18. First pickup for our weekly vegetable basket customers today. Lettuce, kale, swiss chard, onions and radishes. Perfect for a few salads!
  19. 1st Farmers Market for us this year coming up this saturday. Lettuce, onions, kale, swiss chard and maybe even a few radish. Hope for sun.
  20. Do you hear that? That's the sound of 1000 watermelon plants growing in this wonderfully warm weather. Its so loud I can't sleep at night!
