Broke up about an acre of ground over the weekend, got about another acre to go; hopefully the old tractor will hold up through the work. The potatoes are cut up and will be ready to plant in a day or two. The rain has been a welcome sight. Prayer can go a long way.
The potatoes are going into the big garden. In a smaller garden near the house, onions are getting ready to go in the ground, along with some radishes and greens. In a few weeks, right around Easter we'll put in some tomato plants and our peppers along with some squash a couple of weeks earlier.
As for the big garden, that's where the potatoes are going. In a few weeks we'll plant the sweet corn and beans. Not long after that we'll plant some peas and field corn. Something new we'll try this year is sweet sorghum. We make cane syrup, so hopefully we'll get a chance to make some sorghum syrup — we'll see.
We have some cabbage that's just about ready we managed to nurse through the winter.
That's it from the garden for now.
