May 5th Work Day (no pics)

On Sunday, May 5, 2013

Four beds were prepared -- three were tilled and widened a bit for 
tomatoes and cages were placed and staked.  The 4th row is for 
eggplants and peppers -- smaller cages were prepared to support those 
crops.  A group worked on raking the newly cleared area, removing 
branches, rocks, etc.  There is evidence of bug damage on lettuce, 
cabbage and cauliflower and Robin sprayed. Interesting that the green 
varieties were affected much more than the red.  A group thinned the 
"mustard greens" (Mizuna) which was tedious work, clearing them from 
around the leeks.  The thinings were harvested and were quite yummy.
