Today my sister came up to start an apprenticeship at my farm. She takes lots of photos so it will make my life easier and I won’t have to lug a camera around all the time. We got a lot done! In the morning we had to turn in the bolting radishes and spinach and planted dill and more salad mix. Then after lunch we weeded all the parsnips and planted the last of the peppers. It went really well except that my siblings accidentally planted a few random peppers in with the Red Marconis, so we’ll have some surprises at harvest time.
They are turning the dirt and hoping to be successful enough to turn a profit, and to become a valuable part of their communities as suppliers of organically grown food.
Peaceful Valley is giving them a head start by offering them special pricing as part of this Freshman Farmer program.
