At least now when it is warm and sunny we can say “feels like spring”, instead of “my what an unseasonably warm winter this is”. I am hoping on more good rain over the next few days, while also irrigating the crops that have gone in the ground. This week we planted onions and shallots, bringing our storage crop plantings up to full speed.
