Planting Seeds!

It's planting Time in the Green House!
See this crazy machine that Richard de Wilde of Harmony Valley Farm has his workers using to distribute the seeds into the trays of soil! Smart High Tech Organic Farming!

under the trays is hot water tubes to help heat the soil and trigger the seeds to take off. when the seeds feel the worm soil they think "it's spring! Weeeeee, lets grow! but since it's still cold at night Richard covers all the little seeds with a blanket to keep them worm.
It worked! they all are growing now!
The little Fennel and lettuce are up!
the little Kohlrabi & Napa Cabbage are getting huge!
The whole Green house is coming alive!
