Sunday Morning in the Greenhouse

It was a cloudy morning, cool and misty. I cleaned up the greenhouse, washing away the remains of honey and wax from straining the hive; swept the floor; consolidated bags of potting soil. Once the space was clear, I moved the spring crops in-- they have spent the last three weeks in my classroom, growing under lights.  I planted some kale, lettuce, argula, and mustard starts  in the ground and watered them in. They look a little beat, but will recover. Once everything old was in order, I brought out the tomato and pepper seeds and planted them, two by two, in the deep six-packs. They will go to school on  Monday morning to bask in light and warmth until Spring Break. The planting season has begun.
