Early Planting


Onion sets (bulbs) are in the store. We have red, white and yellow onions. Plant them about 4 weeks before the last spring frost.  Plant the sets about 3 inches apart; push them less than halfway in the ground to plant.  The Seed potatoes have arrived safely and this year we have Red Pontiac, Yukon Gold and Kennebec.   Other root crops and green peas can be planted early too.
