This week has been really tiring. We spent last night's dinner just staring at each other, that hasn't happened since my first week here. Everything we're doing is about getting the fields ready for plants...I thought rather than using my energy to be clever, I would give the run down on my day today in schedule form.
7:00 morning meeting. learn how to drive the Ford 4000. open up the greenhouse.
8:00 work on getting the spader implement onto the tractor. grease the joints of the disc harrow.
9:00 water greenhouse and cold frame plants. move bags of fertilizer around the barn. rearrange greenhouse plants after taking a bunch outside to the cold frame.
11:00 spade the woodside one field on the kubota tractor.
12:00 lunch. mmm.
1:00 fertilizer and cover crop is delivered, move palettes and bags of it around.
2:00 second round of watering of the greenhouse.
3:00 use the truck to help pull a stuck tractor out of the soil. begin transplant cherry tomato seedlings into larger pots.
4:00 more planting
5:00 close up the greenhouse, cover the cold frames.
plus a hundred other little things that I can't even recall right now because I'm pooped. and filthy, I had to be doing something amazing to get this dirty.
