April 25th
It was 70 and sunny today! It was exactly what I needed, I went running this morning, worked outside all day, and then went for a walk in the evening; you couldn't keep me inside. I miss the sun so much! I had to take full advantage as the weather will be back to cloudy and possible rain tomorrow.
We spent the day getting the farm ready for 21 garden club members. Lissa has been a part of the Longville garden club since it started, she will give members a tour of the farm which will hopefully peak some interest in the CSA. We weeded and watered everything in the first hoop house, raked the lawns, organized the greenhouse; it looks awesome and the garden club is sure to be impressed.
Lissa found a radish poking out of the ground, it was still pretty small but definitely big enough to eat. She gave me the honor of eating the first thing to come out of the garden. It really was an honor.

We also cut some of the greens for dinner, some spicy asian greens, some spinach leaves, and a little bit of kale. Lissa mixed that with some leftover ham and hard boiled eggs from Easter and made a delicious salad for dinner.
I also wanted to post some picture of things happening around the garden...
