Onion Planting

  By , , ,

We are planting onions today, lots and lots of onions. We ordered 3600 plants this year, but we didn’t count to make sure they were all there!

Most are a little smaller than a pencil.Karl and Dan got half of them planted today, the rest will go in tomorrow. It is backbreaking work and it’s cold outside. I am glad I chose the blogging option.

Can you see him?

When I came out to take pictures we spotted a tiny frog hopping along the rows.

That was also when we noticed the wonky rows! I know it is April Fool’s Day, but Dan insists they did not do it on purpose!
