FEB. 11TH Soups and Salad happenings

Greenhouses are looking good. The spinach house in particular. Sunny and 70 in there today and it was 16 outside with a pretty wind blowing. Soil temp change is amazing. The surface down to 2 inches was at 60 and at 3-4 it was at 40. Perhaps all spinach next year and no lettuce. Who knows. Well for soups tomorrow
the Co-Op will have Cream of Mushroom (vegetarian but rich) and a Chipotle Black Bean Chili (vegan) that has a bit of Otter Creek Ale in it. Both are very tasty. Red Hen will have the Cream of Mushroom also and classic Chili. I am willing to get a bit of feedback on the soups if you have some or would like to make a request. I am already working on the chilled summer soup menu. Hopefully the strawberry growers will do better this year and I can make the chilled berry soup that did not happen last year.

The list of things to do around here just never seems to get smaller. Items do get crossed off but always something moving right into it's place. Debating weather to shovel the roof's off. Should be fine and walking on the shingles when they are frozen is a whole different set of issues. New peeps show up end of next week. Always a good sign. Trying to get setup for seed starting. Bought a new seeding greenhouse, that has to get picked up and built as well. It was suggested I jack hammer through the frost line to get it built before spring.
