Greetings!
The temperatures over the last two few weeks make it seem like Spring will never arrive! But in fact, the days are getting longer and the time to start cool season crops such as broccoli, cabbage, cauliflower, bok choy, collards, kale and lettuce is now! We are also scheduling warm weather crops such as peppers, tomatoes and eggplant transplants in the greenhouse to get a head start on early harvest. As you know, early harvests mean first-to-market prices for you!
Using Windcrest Farm's Certified Organic Transplants eliminates the additional expense, expertise and time needed to run a greenhouse and coordinate sowing dates with planting dates in the field.
Transplants allow more efficient use of fertilizer and irrigation water during early growth stages. When transplants are planted in the field, plants are more uniform since they start off in the field at the same growing stage. Our transplants are started using a complete mineral mix with worm castings and beneficial mycorrhizal fungi so they "hit the ground running". With our Custom Growing Program, any variety of seed can be ordered for transplant production. This give you a much wider selection of varieties than are available through commercially producted transplants which are limited to the most popular varieties.
