Soup is almost ready for delivery tomorrow. Just gotta cook Laine's ham hocks and try not to eat all of them. They are meant to go into a local 2 bean soup with caramelized onions, carrots and celery root. Bit of chili flake too since I like things that some bit to them.

Egg washing going on this evening, the hens did well during the real cold spell. A bit of frost bite on a few of them that have large combs.

Almost there for the start of serious spinach and salad harvest in the greenhouses. Feb. 4th is the usual date that I start to see noticeable growth again. Full tilt by the end of the month and farming starts in earnest.

Still looking for a restaurant space in Montpelier if anyone has leads or ideas.
