I see I haven't posted here since September of 2007!  So it goes.
Over the winter, I've been just growing what I think I can pick.  And, 
that is not much.  Same is planned for spring; I've planted two rows of 
potatoes rather than my normal twenty.  I've been planting spinach one 
or two rows at a time rather than one or two acres.
We are getting near to picking asparagus, I think.  I got it shredded 
and herbicided.  I'm pretty sure I can't find time to keep it picked; 
it needs to be picked every day and I have more than two acres.  At the 
peak, picking will probably take at least a day.  Every day.
I mowed all the blackberries late last summer; that was really too 
late.  There is not much re-growth, so we will have a relatively short 
crop.  That's ok by me since we only harvested about 1/4 of the crop 
last year.
Peaches look pretty good.  A little warm spell will put most of them 
into full bloom.  I need to find time to get out there and prune them 
so that I can spray herbicide under them.
