Last weekend I disked up the 3 garden plots I turned back in January and then attached my hiller/fertilizer distributor and laid out some rows for my early stuff. Planted broccoli and collard plants as well as seeded mustard, turnip and rutabagas. Also planted 10# of new potatoes and about 200 sweet onion sets.
My 8 year old nephew told me back last year he wanted to come out and help "farm" so Santa got him an appropriate sized hoe and leather work gloves. It didn't take him long to realize that hoes were not toys
He dropped my potato seed and helped me cover the furrow as well as help plant the onions. He is ready to break corn and dig potatoes later in the spring.
