Our pea field is coming right along.
Since it was planted, the weather has been a beautiful mix of sun and rain, perfect for growing!

Photo Friday…on Monday
Sorry I never realized that my post on Friday never actually was sent out….so here is this (or last) week’s photo Friday.
One of the biggest reasons we plant spring wheat is because usually it will grow faster than the slugs will eat it this time of year. So here are a few photos to show you just how fast this stuff that we just planted has been growing like crazy! This wheat was planted on the 13th of March.
To see photos of the wheat being planted check out my post, “Spring Wheat Planting”.
Spring Ground Work
Nope it isn’t snowing here, that’s lime! We put it on our fields to help keep our pH levels up and our soil healthy.
This field will be planted to peas tomorrow so we have a bit of work ahead of us to get it ready.
We have worked it a few more times and are now ready to out on some pre-plant fertilizer. That cloud of dust is our spreader.
So happy Friday and enjoy this beautiful weather…rain on Tuesday is the rumor.
