102!

 A couple of birthdays to celebrate today.  Mardi's niece Rhiannon is celebrating one.  Best wishes!

And Calvin is in Montreal to be with his mother, Bessie Lee Wong, to help her celebrate number 102!  Awesome!

Threw out some more plants today.  Boy, the Boston Ferns present a challenge.  Their roots are very aggressive.

They have to be pulled back in order to get the pot insert removed.

But, today we had extra help.  One of Mardi's golf buddies, Irene Cousins, came out to help.

Coincidentally, Irene was a member of our Order Entry group at Dofasco.

If you're wondering why we have to throw out so much, it's called "farming".  When Covid hit and people were stuck at home, gardening took off and it was hard to keep up with demand.  So, David planted extra.  But in 2022 a lot of people called Covid over, and went back to whatever they were doing before gardening.  

That's life on the farm!  Better luck next year.

Tomorrow, I'm back to digging in the garden.  And Sean is finishing his preparation for a Canadian Food Inspection Agency visit next week.  They are the government agency that controls the greenhouse industry.

Stay well.
