Planting Begins

We started planting corn yesterday.  That ties the earliest date we've ever planted.  Again, what a difference a year makes!  We will continue conservatively with an eye on the weather forecast.  No sense going like gangbusters (even if warm temps helps the corn emerge well) and risk freezing off too many acres with a late frost.  Every year is such a balancing act.  I'll write more and include a few pics when I get a bit more time.  Get the peas planted in your garden!

  1. Just found your blog through a link on Twitter. I grew up on the livestock side of the business, so planting and harvest and everything in-between is intriguing to me.
