Its been 5 months...

And I would like to start blogging again.

Since December many things have happened, for instance, The Winter. Capital T capital W. Coldest 5 months of my life. well the last two haven't been so bad but Dec-Mar were brutal.

Currently its 81 degrees and I just planted peas, radishes, and swiss chard. Time flies.

Other things that have happened:
I have gained 15 pounds living here

I live alone for the first time in my life. And love it.

I've become socially awkward from such Glendivian social isolation and don't really know how to interact with people my own age

I'm sick of the prairie

I have eaten chicken fried steak

I have tried to start a farm to school program

I have successfully grown beautiful spinach for the last 6 months

Did I mention the weight gain? This plays out into general bodily well being, or the lack thereof, like sitting down stretches me out these days. Welcome to a year in fried food america.


As for my work at Farm to Table, I'm somewhat disillusioned although many delicious greens are coming up in my hoop house, I'm helping build another one, I've got hundreds of transplants in the basement that I started and the farmers market is starting in a couple weeks.

And the weather is lovely. Things are on the up and up
