Seedlings

We've started tomatoes, chard, beets, lettuce, carrots, chilis and peppers. Hope to have extras to trade on May 1! The soil is great for digging, right now, so we're preparing and adding our compost. In addition to a plant exchange, we'd love recipes that you enjoy from the fruits of your labors!
