This past week
End we had a hard freeze which slowed the growth and we luckily did not plant
any sensitive plant outside. We have looked at the present growth rate of our
plants and determent
The First CSA shares will start the Week
of June 6th we will send out the schedule for delivery and pick up
on May 31st.
This week we
will finish planting Tomatoes, cucumbers and peppers in the High tunnels. The
majority of our direct seeded vegetables will be in the ground also.
This week we
will picked up the Bees on Thursday, I took some Pictures. I did not get stung
great for my first time. Professor Marla Spivak U of M Extension Entomologist
who taught the class I attended this winter stated that Bee Stings have been
proven to help cure arthritis, so I might want to try a few but I am not quite
ready. Marla Spivak has been awarded the prestigious “Siehl Prize in
Agriculture.
In the photos you will see two wild life Bee Hive protective devices.
