Who said farming is low skill job? Supreme concentration is necessary when cultivating baby plants. One inch too far in either direction means death to the infants. You also have to watch out for the ridges that tend to bury the plants when they are disturbed. Farmer Deb is in the drivers seat. stew

This was the first day of weeding on the farm. The weed seeds are just beginning to germinate. This is the perfect time to kill them. The entire field crew was out on a search and destroy mission. Kill it before it grows as Bob Marley sang. stew

It was the perfect day to plow under the freshly mowed rye cover crop. You know the conditions are right when you make a ball with the soil and it easily breaks apart in you hand or if you drop it. If you drop the soil ball and it remains a ball on the ground then the soil is likely too wet to plow. stew

Annie Levay-Krause Stew, One of my SOLEarians wanted to know: "What do you plan on planting? Is a no-till planting possible? If so, what factors help you decide between plow and no-till? If not, why?" She mentioned that, "I studied land management practices shortly and I'm wondering what deciding factors are for farmers." Do you mind popping over to SOLE of Buffalo to answer her questions?

Native Offerings Farm I do not know too much about no-till. We do practice it in our greenhouses, but not in our fields. I would like to learn more. stew

Annie Levay-Krause Would you connect with Krissy Ingleman Creech when you are able? She seems genuinely interested in speaking with you.

Now that we have finished spreading compost on the fields it is time to start building our pile for next spring. We run the compost through the spreader to break it up so it decomposes faster. Once the pile is finished we will cover it with a compost blanket to prevent weeds from germinating and to keep it warm. stew

This was a big week for planting and transplants. Beets, lettuce, kale, scallions and spinach were transplanted into the fields. We also direct seeded our first crop of brassica greens. It feels great to be back on schedule. It looks like we have a week of sunshine to look forward to. stew
