Planting Time

What a great crew we had in the garden last night!

It is finally planting time!

The weather report looks warmer.

We have had frost twice this week here on the farm.

It dipped down to 20 degrees one night!

We covered the strawberries and they seem to have survived.

We do not know the fate of our apple trees yet, but the leaves on the hostas in our landscape were bit by the frost and are turning colors.

We do live in Wisconsin, after all!

Chad has gotten to be a pro at tilling the garden the last few years!

Team A worked on weeding the strawberries for awhile! Team A included this cutie pie!

Once more big people started arriving home from work, they were Team B!

Team B was much more efficient!

Eliza and I headed in to make dinner for everyone!

And there are no photos of Grant or Blake!

So thankful for everyone’s help! I am out numbered here these days! Hopefully the four youngest and I will be able to maintain the garden now! We grass seeded four of the old garden rows, which made it much smaller and more manageable.

After everything was finished outside, we celebrated planting time with strawberries, ice cream and chocolate sauce!
