Good news

The potato plants are flowering and they should be ready soon. We had planted squash, cucumber, and zucchini seeds but only had one plant come up! We went out bought some more squash and cucumber plants and they should come in - unfortunately a little later than hoped. We heard from the local greenhouse that we weren't the only ones. Because it started out really warm in May, frosted, and warmed up again, it killed many seeds. Our potatoes made it though! and so did lots of our other usuals - tomatoes, radishes, beets, carrots, and more!

summer 2010

This year, we're trying potatoes and they look great! Tato and Ricardo came for a visit and will definitely be able to improve some things - las huertas need some work. Stay tuned for updates. More photos coming soon!
