Week #6 Winter 2020-21

  • Brussels Sprouts

  • Shallots
  • Green onions
  • Kale or chard or sprouting broccoli
  • Parsley or cilantro

We are deep in winter, light is at a premium and the days have yet to lengthen. Seeds planted in December are trying to germinate, but it is slow. The hoop houses that lost plastic in September remain uncovered. The crops in them are now ruined. I have begun seeding again for spring but due to the cold and lack of light they will also be slow to germinate. I guess we will spend the rest of winter enjoying Brussels Sprouts and the like. Mustard, bok choi, lettuce is stunted and lost for now.

Enjoy radicchio in all its glory!

The next time I write we will have a new president and the current occupant will hopefully be in Jail where he belongs.
