The difference in soils throughout our "farm" is immense, with our plots spread across the city. Bradford St.'s heavy clay soil seems to be loved by salad greens and kale! Northern Ave.'s light, sandy soil is great for rye. We'll be doing some experimenting this year, planting some things in both locations and see how they do..
Here are a few more photos of the beginnings of this season at our Bradford spot.. (Note: the last 3 were taken by Aiyana, our very skilled 3-year-old photographer/farmer.)
