Tomatoes!!

Yesterday was our annual tomato planting party. I'm always amazed by how many people show up to help on our monthly workbee days, and how QUICKLY things get done with so many hands. Rows of holes dug & hand-watered (yes, we used watering cans), hundreds & hundreds of seedlings planted and given a side dressing of compost, all in one afternoon! We even got the last row of pea stakes pounded in, some garlic weeded and irrigation tape patched. I'll add a few pics from the day - sadly I didn't capture all of the dozen-ish workers on film.
