  1. Your plants are looking great, sounds like you will be very busy growing and selling plants again this year. I see you already have tomatoes in the greenhouse, we hope to move ours out there soon too...sounds like it is going to be another cool rainy spring.

  2. Thanks Mr. H. Yes, it seems the rain will never stop...however, at least it is not snow. : )

    I just put the tomatoes in the greenhouse last week. I tried to hold off but I have too many plants in my grow room and needed the space.
    I bet you are gearing up for the season as well.

  5. Bob, yes it is a Ziggy's greenhouse. We like it a lot. It came with just 2 shelves and my dad added 4 more so we have lots of growing space. He also put in a propane fireplace. It is very sturdy which is a good thing with all the wind we get.

  7. DD, thanks and welcome to the blog...Many of the seedlings are to sell at the local Farmer's market...however we preserve lots of veggies too.

  8. I was looking at the ziggy greenhouses today, and they don't have any window to open or any vents. Did you have to add any?
    Thanks

  9. Yes BB, we added a fan and ventilation. I should say my dad added a fan and ventilation... I'm not the most handy that way...but he had it done in no time. : ) When it warms up during the day we usually just open the door too. Are you considering buying one?

  10. Yes, I am. I have wanted one for a long time. I would think the greenhouse, as is, would over heat and kill all the plants without a window or vent to open. I would be a work when it heats up so would get one of the temperature activated openers. :)

  11. Yes, they do heat up a considerable amount...If it is sunny and 50 degrees outside the greenhouse can go up to 90 in no time.

  12. Hi local bloggers,
    I'm volunteering at the Rathdrum Farmers Market and trying to get more vendors. Would you be interested? We don't demand any commitments, you could just try it for a week or two to see how it goes. If you have anyone you know who might help us, we'd love to keep this market going. Produce and eggs are big sellers.

    Rathdrum Farmers Market is opening on May 7th and is looking for produce vendors!

    This is a great market for new vendors to try out selling their produce. Booths are only $10 a week and you can even share a booth with a friend! The small town atmosphere is great! The market is in the city park, shaded, music and so many friendly people! The market is every other Saturday but may move to weekly once growing season is upon us.

    If interested or know anyone, please check out our website: http://www.rathdrumfarmersmarket.org or respond to me at janeen2x1@gmail.com
