Things are looking good in the hoop house this winter. As I write this, the sun is shining and it's a balmy 65F inside the hoop house. Both Joannée and I took some time off around the holidays and did some traveling. Joannée was in Kentucky and North Carolina visiting friends and family. I was in Wyoming for Christmas and New Year's, skiing and spending time with family, then traveled to Utah, Oregon and Washington to visit friends. Needless to say, we both greatly appreciated the time away, but are glad to be back and working on plans for 2012 on the farm!
We've been plugging away on crop plans and our seed list, as well as figuring out where we'll be growing all of our transplants. Because we don't have a greenhouse yet, the logistics are going to be interesting to say the least. Yesterday we had a master plan meeting for the new property, laying out the locations of structures such as a farm stand pavilion, four hoop houses, a greenhouse and the farm house and barns. It's been very exciting to work through the process of developing a plan for our land and creating a place for the farm to grow and flourish in the years to come.
