While it is melting very quickly, it will be at least a week before the garden will be dry enough to sow more seeds.
So I decided to start two varieties of corn. I wanted to plant more corn this year, but I'm running out of suitable, indoor, space for water-tight containers.
In the category of exciting news, my first round of late-season starts have begun to spout. As of this morning, I have tomatoes, melons, acorn squash, pie pumpkin, and borage poking out of the soil.
In the category of less exciting news, I was laid off from my day job last week. Thankfully, Hubba and his hunting friends have been keeping our freezers full of game. I am also grateful to our local friends for helping us stock our freezers with quality farm-raised meats, and for the bit of canning and other freezing I have been able to do each year. So while we are not fully self-sustainable, we have made huge progress over the years.
I hope you all are staying happy and healthy!
