Uggh...more rain :(

 Weeded ginger on the left and unweeded ginger on the right
 Romanesca! We didn't think we would be able to grow this crop because it needs high fertility and because of the Swede midge pest. But we planted about 50 of them and most plants look like they will produce heads. So get them while they last...we'll only have a few at each market day.
Its that time of year - time to get the stepladder out to prune tomatoes!
 Mmmm kale!
Doh! Due to springtime busy-ness, tractor maintenance and attention goes out the window. So, after all the oil leaked out of the bearings, the wheel fell off. Because of all the rain though, the soil is too wet to till right now anyway.
