A seasons beginning or an seasons end?
As I was prepping ground with fertilizer yesterday for the upcoming season, it occurred to me that this season as not fully ended. We have managed to put together a nice table of produce at the university market throughout the winter. Although it may not be much, its a real benchmark to myself and Jeff who have put a lot of thought and effort into this type of winter production that was before thought to be nearly impossible on a large scale, now it seems as though it is in our grasp. And with markets starting earlier every year, there is almost no breathing time at all. The planning and preparation becomes more challenging every year as we push ourselves to grow a great amount more with our limited space, it is a long process that is fine tuned season after season. There is no late season catching up, so its important to plan ahead and get things in the ground on time. A particularly risky endeavor comes with our greens, as we seed a large amount on a weekly basis, we must be extremely aware to avoid running short on ground, which could mean weeks of no greens during peak season if we're not careful. We are very confident that this will be our biggest and best year yet. Thanks for all the support!
