Whose got that bug?
My son and I were both under the weather today, it can be hard to get outside and do much work. For an hour we could forget about our sore throat and cold. The sunny day helped us muster enough energy to tend our budding garden. We had a lot of weeds to remove today and greens and radish that needed thinning. I also like to transplant the best of the thinned greens, I might get half of them to amount to anything but it feels better then just tossing them. It is critical to water after transplanting and to water daily if needed for the next 3 days or so.
Levi is hard at work watering for me, he's been keen on the garden since he was 2. He just turned four, he thinks he wants to go to school now!
Not exactly sure what he's doing here, but he really has an intense focus about it!
This year we didn't have any of our cold frames at work so we simply found a large piece of greenhouse poly and some slats and nailed it on top of the raised beds. 2 weeks ago we added the hoops so the rain wasn't an issue and the plants had more room to grow. Very happy with the results, I hope to rebuild my cold frames for fall as well, we have our work cut out for us this year! Thanks for stopping by, if you think my blog is worthwhile please resteem me! Love to hear your gardening questions too!

I love everything that has to do with the arrangement of orchards and farming techniques. The truth is that it requires a lot of dedication and a lot of encouragement to make it happy and what a nice son you have greetings
