Beautiful sunshine the past two days but temps were a bit nippy with a brisk north wind. I installed the drip lines on the 100 strawberry plants and had enough rice hulls to mulch 2/3 rds of them so I’ll buy some more at the feed store tomorrow. I counted 20 volunteer potatoes coming up in this years corn patch which is fine as the corn won’t go in until the end of May. Lady Bender started many of her annual flower seeds in the “greenhouse” this afternoon after weeding a permanent flower bed. I’m going to get a bid to build 10’ X 12’ permanent greenhouse using windows and shower doors for glass (I have a friend in the glass business)

Thanks for the pics - always so pretty. We are collecting info on the green houses we plan to get. It’s not glass though it does look like glass. Can’t remember exactly what it’s made of right now.

Just curious to know about something in the background of this first picture of the strawberries. There is a what appears to be a raised bed divided into six sections by white metal bars?

So what’s up with that?
