MARCH AT LEWIS CREEK FARM

It's still cold and snowy at the farm, but we have already started some plants. In mid February, we start some seedlings under lights in our basement. I say "some", but it's 4000 -5000 plants. The first week in March we will open the first greenhouse, and start transplanting those started plants and some others we purchase into the greenhouse. In almost no time at all we will have a full greenhouse. By late March we will start filling the second greenhouse.
As we say "It always summer in the greenhouse", and thats where most of the work takes place during March .The weather starts to warm in late March and it will be warm enough to start repairing machinery, so that it will be all ready to go when the snow finally goes and the fields dry out in mid to late April.
