Making progress...

Phew! Not only do we have germination (more on that sometime soon), but we have (nearly) a place to put the baby plants. Three 4' x 8' raised beds, plus a 10' x 9' plot for the three sisters (after a cover crop mix from Common Ground). I am anticipating waking up tomorrow barely able to move due to all the digging I did today (thank goodness for the rain!) Now if only I could get the compost situation figured out. And buy some soil. Oh, the list goes on. We have also had our first houseguests (for HSB) and our first dinner party (cooked Moosewood's Bulgarian red pepper stew and baked Hungarian pumpernickel bread. My baking skills continue to produce dense, but tasty bread...more yeast? heat?)
