Nick's summary

This last week in Sustainable Agriculture not all that much happened. This was because of the awkward scheduling from the standardized tests that underclassmen had to take this week, as well as the fact that we had to take our mid term on block day which kept us inside an extra day. The one day that we were able to get out onto the farm every groups job was to plant the new seedlings that came from IVC over the weekend. Planting all of these seedlings this week was very important because we need healthy pre-started plants in our soil beginning to grow over spring break. Our classes beds are all very wet and don't have the best soil, so trying to start plants in bed from seed is extremely hard. The seedlings are all different kinds of plant types and crop varieties which will benefit us a lot as the season goes along. Our markets will be full of a mix of good spring and summer crops that have hopefully grown in well. On the last day of the week we chose our books to start our reports on. Wishing everybody a good spring break and please do try and visit your bed once or twice this week!!
