Well, got the garden planted. tomatoes, potatoes, green beans, jalapenos, sweet banana peppers, a little corn. Very sore, but got it all in before the rain got here.

Still too early and grounds way too wet to do anything at my elevation. Greenhouses should be in today and I'm looking at April 24-28 to plant (signs right ).

Way too early here but I have plants started indoor on a heat mat and with grow lights.

I have started hundreds of tomatoes and at least 175 pepper plants, scores of lettuces, kales, etc. I think our families and friends will need help this summer and fall when every one is trying to "get back to normal" and as it dawns on them, there is no new normal financially, health wise, or job wise, they will also realize our food supply is deeply damaged by not having workers to plant/harvest.
I live in potato country and they have not found a substitute source of laborers (even using all the prison workers does not make up the numbers they need) for the migrant workers who are not here now.
When I put the plants out (just seeds in dirt in my garage on my setups), I will count. Might get snow Friday.... I did plant outside seeds of lettuce, kale, escarole, cabbages, brussel sprouts and cauliflower. And carrots.
