Preparing Soil and Planting Carrots

 

 

A cement mixer is used to mix the soil and additives

for Greenhouse planting.

 

 

Once the soil is mixed, volunteers transport

the loaded pots into the Greenhouse

The field is being tilled for planting of corn

On Saturday May 3rd, we planted two grow boxes with carrots.

Above is the grid used to mark and measure where the seeds are

to be placed in the box.  One seed is placed in each hole;

approximately 1100 carrot seeds are planted in each box.

 



Volunteers planting carrots, which involves being on

knees and crawling along the box.

 

 Following the planting, screened soil is

shaken over the box to lightly cover the seeds.
