The greenhouse is getting filled with plant starts. The rosemary plants that we use for cuttings are blooming in the greenhouse. The orchard has an addition of 12 inches of snow this week. We have been spending our snowy days painting the walk-in cooler and working in the greenhouse. Day-time temperatures in the hoop houses are well above 60 degrees. The spinach is benefiting from the long days and is growing strong.
