Hello everyone!
I just thought I would write a quick post to tell you about some Stone Farm updates.
I have been doing some major work on important farm infrastructure over the past month. The biggest of these farm additions is a NEW GREENHOUSE! This will allow me to efficiently and effectively grow high quality transplants to go out into the garden as well as grow some speciality items for sale straight from the greenhouse year-round.
* Putting the plastic on the greenhouse with the help from my girlfriend Liz and some other great college friends!
* Now with a door, electricity, and plastic neatly trimmed!
* Point well for year-round greenhouse water, used shallow well pump (dressed in the blue), and interior electricity!
While I am slightly behind on some plantings due to delays in greenhouse construction (...I am looking at you, Central Maine Power!) I have been planting, planting, planting out in the field to get some spring crops started!
Planting beds prepped and seeded. Skinny rows are the 12" walking paths in between the wider 30" planting beds where the plants live. Salad greens, arugula, radish, carrots and more are all planted.
Thank you for all your support over these past couple months. By September/October I hope to begin construction of some high tunnels for year-round production right out in the field! FINGERS CROSSED. A few CSA shares are still available- be sure to check out my website for more details!
