Dividing the tender shoots
Choosing the healthiest plantsGardening at the farm is virtually non-existent right now. For a brief couple of days we had lettuce planted...until that row got tilled under. For another brief couple of days we had kale planted...until that row got tilled under too! The basil was planted in a charming pot, and yes, that got dumped. Since then, we have managed to NOT till under the cabbage plants or the lavendar plants. I confess, I've lost a bit of that springtime motivation to get the gardening done, and can't always turn those random available five minutes into anything productive.The easy part of the project is dreaming up ideas and the challenge is actually accomplishing something worthwhile. So what should I do? This year I need to make progress in providing opportunity for the littles to "help", and create more of those precious memories...even if we have no kale or lettuce!

Hang in there. Why did you till under the lettuce and kale? We pulled our Romaine, it wasn't doing well at all. We are putting our off shoots from our strawberry plants in their place.
Plan a day to just work in the garden and relax and enjoy it!
