It's true, winter has barely touched us in Denver so far this year. But we can certainly see the changes now that the days are getting longer. We've kept winter beds - bok choi, spinach, onions - which have hibernated with the long nights and cold temperatures at night. They are perking up and promising a verdant spring harvest.
Over the winter we have uber-insulated our hoophouse with passive solar and thermal mass techniques. We are now redesigning them for spring planting and getting a jump on starts for our fields. Our compost program is coming along as we've had a great run with Metro CareRing gathering their waste vegetables through the fall. Our team of Bhutanese farmers have also built us some fantastic sheds.
Thank you again for your support. We hope to see you as the year marches forward.
