Morning: Weeding
Today was a VERY windy+rainy day until the afternoon, when the rain stopped, but the wind continued to blow hard!
After doing chickens in the rain, we went to green haven for breakfast. When we met Brenda who said that there wasn't much work for us in the rain and we got to have 30 more minutes of rest until she could find something for us to do. Eventually we were notified that there was some weeding in the hoophouse for us to do. So we made our way over and met Graham who taught us which plants needed to be weeded out and which plants were to stay. After a few mistakes and a bit of practice we were able to zip up and down the patch weeding out all the bad things without taking the good ones out.

Afternoon: Weeding and Seeding - er, Potting-On
We spent the majority of this afternoon on 'Potting-On' which basically involves transplanting small to medium plants into bigger, more fitting pots; giving them the room to grow big and strong. Before we started this however, we finished a bit more weeding in the hoophouse as well as a bit of weeding outside in a small patch of lettuce. After the weeding we went to the heated greenhouse(the fire was off and both ends' doors were open) to do Potting-On for the rest of the day.
