Cucumbers are in the Ground!

We're super happy that our first lot of cucumbers are in the ground. The photos above show the whole process so you can join us step by step. First we shallow tilled to expose the invasive couch roots that would compete with our cucs for light, nutrients and water. We were accompanied by a friendly blackbird who enjoyed feasting on some of the worms. Then we spread the compost, aerated the soil with broadforks, spread the mulch and planted 300 cucumber seedlings. A very busy, but fulfilling two days of work. We're looking forward to harvesting our organic cucumbers at the beginning of January. 🥒🥒🥒
