Asparagus is starting to grow



Our granddaughters are thrilled to find the first spear of asparagus poking out of the ground. We walked over our field and found enough delicious little spears to BBQ for supper. As long as we do not get any frost, we will be picking within a few days.

Seeding Garden Peas



Finally, we were able to find a small dry area in our field and get the first planting of peas planted the other day. This is the latest we have ever got started planting peas since 1986 when we first started growing them on a field scale. Please note the snow on the background. I was really suprised when I looked at the planted peas today and they have already started to sprout. They are going to come fast!! Can hardly wait for that first tiny baby pea!!
