Life is Good ! The sun is shining !! The birds are chirping away ! I have a new job/career :) My garden is thawed out , and starting to show signs of life !! The seeds planted a week ago in my kitchen & the big greenhouse at the Svetec's Farm has all sprouted !!

| Cold Frame #1 , for the taller plants.. all made for recycled pieces. This one is old kitchen cabinet doors , and a window. Adds at least 10C during the day , more when the sun is bright :) It took about 4 days for that snow to melt. |
 |
| The chickens were happy for a warm spring day, dirt baths all round !! lol |
 |
| The Svetec's Main Barn. I just love old barns :) |
 |
| We even found a few carrots that survived the winter. We kept a small row to see if we can collect the seed this year . |
 |
| Once the roof and end walls were on , it was rather steamy in the 80x20 Green house. We planted a few rows or lettuce, radish and spinach seeds.. then tried some transplants just a test row , which was a good thing as 90% didnt survive . |
 |
| MUCH smaller scale at home. I planted about a third of each package, this will be the earliest Ive ever started a garden, those cold frames better work :)) |
 |
| The base and the floor of the walk in cooler. Had to call it a day to let the foam set. This is going to be one rock solid cool box. |
