30,000 transplants later

After two solid days of toiling in the sunny Spring heat, we have transplanted over 30,000 seedlings into the fields.

We now have lettuce, broccoli, cauliflower, kale, kohlrabi, celery, celeriac, cabbage, and who knows what else in the field. Our crew of six, plus Mike and Patrick, put in long hours with very little complaining.





Liana, Jesus & Francisco load flats of plants from truck to transplanter.

Half a day's work is shown here below:


It doesn't look like much now, but in a few months it will be lush and beautiful!


I am officially exhausted. i must be getting old...it took me two days to fully recover my sore muscles.
