Day 100 of 365

Clear before sunrise,
beautiful almost full moon.
Then the sky turned gray.

• Low: 50
• High: 75

Started to rain after evening chores. We only got a sprinkle.

Planted:

• cucumbers, Straight 8 (Shumway's)
• radishes, Pink Beauty (Sustainable Seed Co)
• sorghum, Mennonite, (Baker Creek)
• popcorn, Japanese Hull-less (Shumway's)
• 2 hybrid tomato plants

The cukes are a new variety for me. I planted them in the 3rd pea bed, thinking I'd like to try growing cukes with a trellis. The radish seeds are leftover from last year and were a freebie. The tomato plants are for green tomatoes to can for frying. (Not worried about saving seed from these).

Harvested:

• parsnips

Coming Up:

• potatoes
• Jerusalem artichokes
• sugar beets
• Red Detroit beets
• Swiss chard (I think)
• flax? or else there's an awful lot of something coming up in that bed!

Found 5 eggs stashed behind the hay feeder. 

And somebody took a big bite out of my almost ripe strawberry!!!! I dug out a row cover and covered the bed with that. There are a lot of green berries so here's hoping for a good harvest. 

Eating:

• milk kefir
• water kefir (soda)
• goat cheese
• sourdough bread
• goat milk
• lettuce
