Sunshine and 60° has inspired us to gets the starts in their second homes and get onions and potatoes in the ground.

I like styrofoam coffee cups because you can cut off the bottoms and use the uppers for cutworm protectors.

The wee birdies have outgrown their tubs as well, so Michael built brooding boxes for them in the coop.

Yesterday we had help with cuddling the critters.

We will slowly harden off all our starts, moving the plants to tall-sided totes to protect them from the wind and slowly lowering the temperature on the birds and allowing them access to the rest of the coop before they get to venture into the fenced-in yard. Off to tuck in the potatoes now!
