Mid-March news from Norwich Meadows
Tuesday, March 9, 2010 at 6:20PM The seedling houses are bursting with onions and greens soon to be transplanted. Haifa is in the greenhouse on this beautiful sunny day (75 f in the greenhouse) planting peppers into 20 row seedling trays. This will then be planted into larger containers (72's) that will then go in the ground.
We just got back from our trip to see family and friends. While in Egypt filling out applications for our employees for their visas we learned that the process had changed (I had no idea that I would have to become an expert at this when I first signed up for this program*&^%).
So we are in startup mode we will begin planting seedlings for the CSAs in another week ot two at the most. Vegetables like lettuce, greens,beets, and cabbages will be planted to be harvested around mid June. We have conducted a national search for an experienced farm manager!
