Good Morning Folks,

Well seeds are being planted in the basement and I am sowing spinach in the greenhouses. Trying to get my taxes done and look for a tractor and find an employee for this summer.  Conferance season is almost over for me. NOFA this Sunday and then going to listen to Eliot Coleman on Monday and see if I can learn anything. Lot's of anticipation building up on my end since this will be my first full season spent totally on the farm with no off farm job.  I have so many spread sheets set up, now to actually use them. The warm spell of weather this week was useful and nice. Salad continues to come to life in the greenhouse and still trying to figure out ways to improve winter systems. So many things to try and not enough time to do them.  Winter market in Montpelier next Saturday hope to see you all there. Joe
