It has been very cold, we have planted some stuff so we are watching very cautiously. Our carrots and beets that we planted on the 17th have not geminated yet which is a bit of a concern. However our tunnels are performing well so things are growing well in those spaces because of the heat. We are heavy into pruning, getting our apple trees pruned. We are waiting for some heat to get back at planting, we are hoping maybe tomorrow.
