Corn planting officially underway!
Well the title says it all. Yesterday my five year old son and I spent the afternoon in the cab tractor discing up bean stubble so we could start planting today. My dad was able to plant 15 acres of corn today and was also able to plant our first patch of sweet corn. I was able to disc up the next field and get it prepped for my dad to plant tomorrow. With our fingers crossed, we have had no break downs so far and the planter seems to be running smoothly with all our repairs we made preseason. In my spare time I have been painting the farm logo on the sideboards of my truck to get it ready for farmers market which starts in just one week! Hopefully this will help with being recognized a little better at market. We should have plenty of flowers available next week and will have pictures uploaded this next week. The first planting of lettuce has emerged along with the first sowing of radishes and green onions.
