SELLMEYER FARM NEWSLETTER

Well we worked hard this weekend! Sunday and Wednesday we finished pulling up plastic and drip tape on the pumpkin & squash field and the garden next to the house. Greg then spread manure and compost and disced it into the fields while I dug up and potted my Rosemary, Oregano, French Tarragon, Stevia and mint plants to take into the greenhouse for the winter. I had about 20 big pots in all. We plant these out in the gardens in raised beds with everything else so they are on drip tape and get watered and we have found them to do really well this way, but the problem is that they are not in permanent locations and some of them do not over winter so we have to dig them up each Fall. This way I also have them in January to take cuttings off of and root and get more going for Spring!
