5/6 - Tomato seedlings potted and in the greenhouse.

5/7 - Used the brush mower to knock down the winter's overgrowth.

5/8 - Although the ground is still pretty wet and too heavy, I couldn't wait any longer.  I got a first pass at tilling done.

5/15 - Kitchen Garden Facing Northeast.  Got a second pass done.


5/15 - Facing Southeast. The ground was still too wet to get the tractor out into but I needed to get the soil tilled.  Did it with the TroyBilt.

5/15 - Facing Southwest.  New seedhouse / barn going up in the background.

5/24 - Mom & Dad cleaning up a dahlia bed along a new road.

 5/24 - The bed all done.  Shortly after this picture was taken, we had gully washer rain storms.  The ground is now really saturated again.  Not sure when I will be able to till.


5/24 - John took an opportunity during a break in the rain to string trim around the farm.

 5/16 - Mom's new planting of strawberries are blooming

5/29 - In spite of the poor cold and wet weather we have been having, tomato plants are growing - slowly.

5/31 - Another pass at tilling.  Center "avenue" cleared and started spreading chips.  Hay is getting ripe but weather is still to wet.  New seedhouse / barn is progressing along.


6/1 - Facing SW showing what was completed the day before.

6/3 - Yesterday it was dry (even though the ground is still very saturated). I got the south half of the garden tilled while John worked on paths. It is raining again today. We plan on planting tomorrow. Very late this year.
