Life of a farmer...never ending routine with unexpected surprises. Purolator rolled in with 4000 strawberry baby plants from Quebec. Some new varieties that we want to try out in this northern zone this year. So everyone HAD to change gears and plant. Into the ground they went...all planted and safe! Irrigation was hooked up and after 3-4 "small" glitches worked like a charm. The last thousand will be planted first thing in the morning. Thank goodness for flexible hard working lads who persevere through thick and thin. 14000 more will be planted next week. And the Sandhill cranes watched us through the whole thing!
