2009 is off and running again. It was a wacky winter, with well above average snow and cold. We just lost the last snowdrift earlier this week. The cover on the farm patch went on today. The soil is still cold, but should heat up with warm weather this week.

The plants for the farm were started on the 16th. I'm growing my 770.5 Makarchuk from last year. Andrew is growing his 396, also from 2008. We're sharing this hoophouse. Dad doesn't have the advantage this year. We'll see who pulls through with the biggest.
