Planting today

With the help of April and Alex and Eli of course...peppers, garlic, shallots, lettuce, quinoa (something new I'm trying this year and I don't know if it will grow here), and a few tomatoes are in the ground. Thank you, Jesus, for a very productive day.

 

Boys and their worms!

 

April helps to plant the peppers and puts protective pails (the bottoms are cut out of them) around them to help with the wind and to keep them warmer.

 

Eli counting the garlic bulbs saying ah...ah...ahhh after each one.

 

Trying something new...to get tomatoes a little faster than normal...covering them with a small poly tunnel to keep the heat in...but on the sunny days it is way too hot in there.

 

Peppers and lettuce heads are planted.
