i've been up to a lot in the last week or so in preparation for the season:

- i've been accepted into an organic orchard management training program run by environmental youth alliance
- finished the winter dormant fruit tree pruning, and turned most of the compost bins
- read 'the winter harvest handbook' by eliot coleman and have been researching cloche/hoophouse designs
- drafted the agreements for csa members and landowners
- received most of my seed order from west coast seeds
- lots of seeds germinating!
- registered urban bounty farms as a business
- sketched out the 2012 planting schedule
