Gentle Days
Today was a beautiful day. We can't believe it is late winter! How crazy is that with weather like this?
After feeding the masses for 2 long weekends in a row, Farmer Jeff and I are doing something a lot quieter. We are transplanting the 1,000 tomato babies! He has been very organized and written out planting maps for seedling trays. I have assisted by printing up labels for the transplant trays.
Once they have been moved to the trays, the trays are labeled, the labels are taped down to slow the water damage to the label, then they are numbered and moved to the truck. Why the truck? Once the tomatoes have been transplanted, they are moved over to the greenhouse at the other property we are farming.
I have never seen my honey so happy. He loves what he is doing. We are both grateful for the life we are leading. What more could we ask for?
(I just had to include a picture of our beautiful blooming camellia!)

What a nice post. I love to read about happy people. And here we head into, in my opinion, the best season of the year! That has to be the most amazing camelia I've ever seen.
BTW, you need to post more often - I love reading your posts! :-)
Great pictures, love the truck.
I am having trouble with my tomato seedlings. They grow long and spindley and fall over. What type of soil are you using for your tomato babies?
Beautiful camillia!
It has been great weather lately.
Hubby took it with him when he left town this morning though (he's has that annoying habit, didn't you know).
Have a great one and maybe I'll see you at knit group tomorrow.
