Catch up

This is my fourth year at the SFCG and has to be the latest for getting started. Plots were just plowed and marked in the past two weeks which is putting me behind before I even get started. The volunteers work really hard and the weather has just not cooperated for the county to get the field plowed. I sprayed the weeds last week and started tilling. Yesterday and today I plant. 

We have roughly ten rows. Facing from the front, the far right two longest rows have lady peas. The first row on the left has about 5-6 ft of butter beans with the remainder left fallow to act as a barrier to all the weeds. The second row is another 5-6 feet of butter beans then 10 feet of purple hull peas. Row three is a purple hull " pink-eyes." I'm leaving a little extra space then rows four and five are for tomatoes, except the start of row five has three pepper plants. There are currently 21 tomato plants in the ground. Row six is extra wide which will be nice for cucumbers and squash. Row 7 & 8 are down with lady peas. Those are the longest rows at about30 feet each.
