Here are those winter lettuce and spinach we planted last fall. It was much colder longer this year than other winters, so the harvest was later than I imagined, but here it is, a harvest of spring salad fixings. Soon we will have a big spring bed shaping and planting day- a good time for you 2008 share holders to come down for your bonus spring spinach! We’ll keep you posted.

My husband and I felt encouraged to start a home green house because we love the green color of nature and life. Brad has spent lots of time remodeling and adapting the building that is now a small green house making possible the existence of a place where plants can grow happily.
We delight on the growth of little seedlings and the idea of the future enjoyment of their fruit. Elisa likes watering the seedlings and observes them with cautiousness as she knows she is not allowed to touch them.
Back to the country where I come from there are more things about nature to be impressed of other than the joy of just seen little sprouts come to blooming beautiful flowers and fruiting. Ecuador and his mountainous volcanic landscape, has granted fertility on the earth for many generations and flourished with life under a continuous season of warm weather, sunlight and rain. Things grow wildly and huge in the jungles, trees look like broccoli heads seen from above, fruit like papayas, watermelons and pineapples reach great sizes and the great variety of fruit makes us dream on its colors, textures and flavors.
We eagerly wait for the blooming of flowers and the joy of seen again the good looking green leaves and fruit that once more will cover the ground of many gardens.
