Shoot, another week went by without us taking any farm photos. Well, there's no pretty tomatoes growing or interesting insects buzzing flowers to photograph. The landscape is quite drab here until we get a nice snowfall. Hopefully we will get little snow later this week.
Our seeds for next year are ordered (or tucked into seed packets already for the veggies we grow our own seed for). Now we move on to planning our crop map to figure out exactly how much to grow and in which fields. Yes, we probably should do this before ordering seeds but we wanted to get our seed orders in as early as possible as it looks like there will continue to be shortages on many varieties again this year. (Something to think about if you have your own garden!)
