This Week at Valley Dream Farm

This spring we have had all kinds of weather. 80 degree heat one day and 3 inches of snow 2 days later. Got to love Mother Natures spring fertilizer to green everything up.

Yesterday the crew and a couple of guests put plastic on the "New" greenhouse. This is the greenhouse that tried to fly to "OZ" during the big windstorms last winter. Only took a couple of hours to cover. It was quickly filled with all of the onions that Joe has been planting.
The plants that were started in the germination room back in February are now planted in the ground in the greenhouses. The cucumbers are slowly starting to produce for us. A fresh cucumber sliced for dinner is coming your way soon. YUM YUM!! There are even a couple of tomatoes in there.

The greenhouse opens on May 1, 2010.
Hours 10am-6pm daily.
