These are onion plants. Each bunch has about 60 plants. Last week, just before the rain, we planted 30 bunches or about 1800 onion plants.
Here are the raised beds with the onions in them. They will mature around the 1st of June. I need to create one more raised bed to finish planting the last 15 bunches.
These two rows have over wintered collards. They will start producing again in a few weeks.
Last December I created this trellis for the 5 new muscadine plants. They are 18 feet apart and will start producing fruit in 2013. Starting in the 4th year and for the next 20 they should produce 50-75 pounds of fruit each year around September.
This is a picture of our newest product - Tumbling Toms. Each 10" basket contains two special cherry tomato plants that will 'tumble down' rather than grow straight up. They will be ready for sale in April and should have some green tomatoes on them by that time. I started them from seed on December 31, 2011. The tomatoes have a nice balance of sweet and acid taste.Now that the carrots are out of the tunnel, work begins on getting ready to plant tomatoes in early March. The tunnel holds 190 tomato plants in 4 double rows plus two outside rows for spinach and cucumber.
