Row Cover on Pea tendrils



Today we put row cover over the pea tendril patch that we seeded on April 11. The peas are just starting to germinate and with the warm weather and the row cover to protect them, we will soon have baby pea plants pooping through the soil.


It takes many hands to put the row cover on. Makayla was a great help sitting on the edge until we got some soil shoveled on it. The material is very light weight and the least little breeze and it is like holding down a giant kite.

It is lots of fun getting out and seeing everyone. We are offering samples of our asparagus realish, pickles and apple butter. Yummy!
