Laetare Sunday ~ The Cool Season Crop is in the Ground

After all of our preparations and hard work during the week, we took time in the morning to enjoy the garden by planting some seeds before a rain…well, almost before the rain. The kids and I put on our rain jackets and planted seeds during a light rain shower.   Each child had a job. #1 held the packets of very small seeds, #2 held the beet seeds, and #3 held the bag of onions. All the children took turns putting seeds in the dirt per my instructions, and we ended the time by planting the onions. This lasted all of 20 minutes!

What did we plant? Broccoli, Kale, Spinach, Lettuce: red and green leafy, Beets, Garlic, Onions
