Days Start Early Out On The Farm


Posted by Eric












So many things happen at once this time of year, it's almost hard to keep track! George is touring growers up & down the left coast looking for NEW plants for 2010! The California Pack Trials provide the opportunity to observe the performance of new varieties in the ground, and the chance to determine which are worth growing for next year! (Yes, we really start a year in advance!)
Before he left, George & I spent an early morning reviewing the progress out at the farm (which at the rate Maria & crew are transplanting, is filling up quickly!) Many of the pants you see here were selected at last year's Pack Trials, and will be in the greenhouse in just a few short weeks as "New Plants for 2009"!
Afterwards, we were off to Ann Arbor to meet with our web site programmer to check on the progress of all the exciting new changes coming to the web site. We are very anxious to unveil the new look & all the new features! This has been a winter-long project, and we hope to share the results of our efforts later this month! As always, we look forward to your feedback!
