Seeds are here!!

We have started to seed trays for greenhouse production.  Green onions, basil, broccoli and chinese cabbage are already growing.  We are hoping to change things up a bit now that we have the larger greenhouse to work with this spring.

 This year we processed a lot more produce.  We had an abundance of tomatoes from the greenhouses.  We were able to put up 20L of tomato sauce and 15L of salsa.  As it turned out it wasn't enough to last until our next harvest. 
 We seeded ten varieties of potatoes last year.  The colours look great in a CSA bag.
2011 was the second year we made homemade suaerkraut.  This is a picture of our littlest one helping to bring the juices out of the cabbage.  Once again we did not make enough to last until next year.  We made 10L but it was consumed by January.
