The Market Season has Begun







The Market season has begun. We are excited to be in Burlington this Saturday and Stowe on Sunday with our buckets of gourmet tulips, posies, bed plants and tomatoes plants.
There are flowers coming up everywhere.. the wild violets have taken over the grass and it is wonderful. Miscari, daffodils and tulips are everywhere. Alliums are pushing up there stalks and I think will be blooming in 2-3 weeks. Lilac buds are getting fat.
We harrowed in all the winter rye and broke two new fields. We will be tilling this comming week and I started transplanting cold tolerant crops. Nicole is extending the perennial patch to include more wood ornamental for winter markets. I am very excited about this bed because it is going to be ornamental as well as including edibles( blueberries.. just for personal consumption though). I have plans to put in a handsome stone wall and day lilies in front of that.
In the mean time Paul is back weeding wonderfully.. the perennials are grateful. And we have a new assistant Whitney who will be helping me at Burlington Farmers Market.
We are busy doing events for the next few weekends. So look for these pictures in the up comming weeks. Thank you, all for making mothers day a great success.. we hope all the mothers loved there bouquets.
