Our New Greenhouse!

So we totally splurged and bought a ready-to-plant-in greenhouse. It was delivered yesterday and we were in it and planting right away. It's really pretty:

Okay, so that's not true. This is a beautiful church in New York City. I was visiting my good friend Kevin a couple weeks ago and his apartment overlooks the Trinity Church and its cemetery. Alexander Hamilton is buried there.

Here is our "new" greenhouse, sans stained glass:



Since we've run out of room in our sunroom, we recently moved our onions and scallions out to the farm and put them under these hoops and row cover in the existing, unheated greenhouse. There's a space heater on the end of each hoop structure so when it's 15 degrees outside at night, it stays a cozy 40 degrees under the hoops. We peel back the row cover during the day so the little seedlings get lots of good light. It's a few extra steps but it's what we have to do and it works.

I ran the tractor over our vegetable field with the disk last weekend and it looks so nice and soft. I want to plant myself in that field.
