Spinach and Micro Greens!
​It finally happened, greens are back! We have delicious micro greens available at market this week (first time ever!) and sweet spinach that survived the bitter cold of December in the safety of our hoop house. We're gonna have to keep this one short and bullet style since we have some wonderful old friends visiting us from out of state right now. They're only here till Sunday, so we're trying to squeeze every bit we can from their time here!
  • Very first week of Micro Greens! The first harvest has taught us a lot about yields and growth rates... also they're delicious.
  • Hoop house 1 is weeded, tended and reseeded
  • Seeding is well under the way in the greenhouse. We just finished the onion seeding (typically our largest seeding of the year) among others
  • Prepping for more greenhouse upgrades 
  • Finally, FINALLY organized the office! With our first season starting so soon after we moved here last year, the office became... more disorganized than I'd prefer to admit to haha. Very nice to be back on track.
  • Scallions got weeded  in the field
  • Broke the electric in the greenhouse and fixed it in the same week! An above average turnaround for us!
See y'all at market!
Helen, Jim, Exie the dog, and the Lake Divide Farm Crew!
