Snowy Greenhouse and March Updates

Wow, we can't believe it's March! We have not updated in the past week, mostly because we've been busy going back and forth from East End headquarters to Louisa. The plants in the greenhouse are loving the heating mats we have on the floor. We are seeing sprouts from most of the plants at this point, and we are almost ready to transfer them to Louisa for growing.

We have heard many requests for strawberries. At this point, we will not be offering strawberries this season, but we're looking into it.

The snow storm yesterday was beautiful, but we had to stay on our toes to keep the greenhouse
from being covered. Gentle sweeping with a broom kept the roof of the greenhouse free of a heavy snow load. We'll be heading out to Louisa later this week to check on the land and start tilling.

Please keep us informed of your questions and concerns--the growing season is really underway, and the local markets are all starting to get geared up. Look forward to seeing everyone.
