Potato plants are pushing through the soil! And so are lots of weeds — earnest weeding has begun!

Also, today we planted three beds of head-lettuce, or about 1200 plants. Varieties included Waldmann's, Winter Density, Breen, Magenta, Olga, and Buttercrunch.

It is very likely we'll be harvesting mesclun greens for Saturday's Portsmouth market. If not, we'll have it next week for sure. We will have lovely scallions and a few sprigs of thyme for this weekend's market, as well as a large variety of ornamental plants.
