they grow up so fast

We needed room in the greenhouse for warm-weather loving crops like peppers and tomatoes, so the onions had to get moved outside. They don't seem to mind it, and we have extra cover to throw on them if it gets too cold at night. Whew. It is certainly THAT time!

Meanwhile out in the field things are beginning to come up too. Here's a peek at the spinach:
