Early Farm Tour Uncovers Broccoli

On Saturday, we had a visit from Steve McCulloch's South Puget Sound Community College Edible Plants class. This meant we uncovered all of our hoop houses covered in Agribond--a white filmy cloth that we cover just about every crop except peas. The cloth keeps new starts a bit warmer and is a nice barrier to garden pests. We were surprised to find our first bed of broccoli ready to harvest--an affirmation that things are growing despite the cold, damp weather.
