While the rest of the country seems to be under feet of snow, worrying about where they are going to put it all. Here in Oregon I don't think it could be more of the opposite. It's been sunny, warm, with a little rain here and there. Although we are dryer than most years, I think the only thing that makes me nervous is that Oregon tends to catch up when it comes to rainfall. So once it starts, I'm a little worried it's not going to stop.
Even with the sun, this field of cabbage has a few wet spots to get caught in. So it isn't all smiles, rainbows and puppy dogs here.
While we can we are farming away! We have planting spring wheat, fertilized the grass seed, and cabbage. We are spraying for broadleaf weeds and a few grassy weeds. We are trying to wrap up winter projects like pruning, working on equipment and fixing all the things we broke last year. All while the sun shines and tells us to get out there and get ready to plant peas and radish, and hope the rain doesn't make it impossible to plant beans later in the spring.
So while everyone else is looking out their window to snow, snow, snow...just rest assured that we are going to have plenty of perennial ryegrass seed for you to overseed your lawn with this spring when the big melt comes along!!
