Greenhouse Planting

The greenhouse is officially cleaned out,  repaired from winter weather,  and holding heat.
 
Today I moved all the flats that were already planted with cold weather crops, hot peppers, and sweet peppers into the greenhouse from the kitchen.
 
 
 
 
 
And I planted 360 tomato plants.  We are heirloom tomato snobs, and we really only garden so we can have tomatoes. :-)
 
Not really....but we are tomato snobs. 
 
I plan to review what we grow this year for any other budding heirloom tomato snobs.  Our favorite to date is Chocolate Pear. It is to die for.  We dried a bunch and ate them into the fall.  Perfection!
 
Last year I tried to garden in crocs. Didn't work so well,  and I was stressing about saving up $140 for new work boots.  We went to the store prepared to splurge on boots for me for the season,  but when we took one last minute look at Walmart we found these sweet babies for less than $40. Amazing!  My feet were happy all weekend.
 
 
A great Sunday sermon from a passionate pastor,  laundry on the line outside instead of in the kitchen,  hands in the dirt,  hardly any snow in the yard,  a big fat jiggly pig in the sty, a happy goat, and two chickens that decided it was time to start laying again. ....life is good.
