Planted my Conlon two-row barley in the mud on Moday. On Tuesday, it snowed. It should be fine now that it’s climbing into the ‘70s. Should see a shoot or two maybe even this weekend. All the tomatoes are now being hardened off outside.

The 3/8” rebar pins for anchoring my low-hoop tunnel ribs have been cut and I’ll start the layout of the tunnels this weekend. I hope to have over 200 feet of bed under tunnels this season. The insect-free greenhouse conditions really turn out prime veggies. Also hope to put in some nursery stock in the new orchard wing and more grapes. Cane fruit and strawberries when their new beds are prepared.

Finally, we eskimos can begin to garden.
