Week 6 on the Farm: Transplanting

Weather Forecast: Mid-60s to low 70s. Slight chance of rain on Wednesday.

It's transplanting week!!! I have twenty flats of vegetables that need to be in the ground by the end of the week. This includes all of our cool-weather transplants such as broccoli, pac choi, red & green cabbage, scallions, red marble onions and kale. So we'll have you help us with that when you come out. You'll get to practice garden bed preparation and we'll show you the proper depth to plant each transplant.

You'll also want to take a look at the crops that you direct-seeded a couple of weeks ago. Peas are coming up, though spottily, and the spinach is coming along quite nicely. We've also got radishes, turnips, salad mix and arugula sprouting in the garden beds.

Your worms are doing well too, so remember to bring them some more food this week!
