The mud goes squish and the grass goes squeak - thank heavens for good boots!

It’s been a rainy couple of days, but we’re harvesting from the high tunnels, so at least it’s dry when I’m picking. The CSA doesn’t start until June, but website orders and retail accounts need filled Monday through Wednesday.

We have a lot of plantings scheduled for the next few weeks, so Jason’s been working in the rain, too, spreading compost when he gets home from his day job.

The warmer weather and rain combined for an explosion of green and wildflowers. On a sunny day last weekend, it was nice to walk home from the farm and hear the breeze swishing the baby leaves. The patter of spring rain outside has been nice, too. Splish, splash, squish, swish - the tune of May.

Warm and dry in the Big Tunnel today, but cool and rainy outside.

We haven’t touched the northwestern corner of the farm yet this season. Beautiful wild mustard brightens the day.
