So yet another thing to be nervous or anxious about.  The drippers are in.  The beds tilled, and two thirds of the garden is planted.  The worry…. “Will it all work?  Will it all grow?  What did I forget?  Oh god don’t let it be a disaster!  Agggghhhhh!!!!”

Chill Farmer Jon.  It has water.  The plants are practically completely planted in composted horse manure.  It is full sun, and the above ground plants are mulched with some pretty serious plastic.  SOMETHING has to grow!

I so appreciate all the help from Zina, Aaron and Grandma!  We got ourselves an assembly line going and the planting, while a challenge, is going great!  Aaron is putting int 37 drip tapes for the corn, beans and sunflowers.  If this all works it will be magnificent.  Of course…. a farmer is a natural born pessimist masquerading as an optimist.  The summer will prove itself… one way or another.
