It is so much fun starting seedlings in our farm garage and watching them grow into healthy plants. We start with our farm grown compost and mix our worm castings we grow on our farm. The most fun is studying hierloom seed catalogs months ago seeking out the rarest most interesting seeds.
I love growing purple vegetables such as purple of Sicily cauliflower rich in minerals a colorful Italian hierloom that cooks to bright green. We also are planting a very rare and amazing pea king tut purple one of the most historicle peas known it is said to be from pharaoh Tuts tomb.
We are also planting our farm famous heirloom tomatoes to name a few dark galaxy, skin looks like from deep in space, as well as Brads atomic grape. We do not grow a lot of grape tomatoes as they are so much hassle to harvest, but this one is so different we are giving it a try.
Looking forward to 2018 farming.
