While most things in the world are in winter hibernation, animals, people and the like, this seems to be particularly true with COVID these days, Vollmecke Orchard farmers are doing no such thing. We are busy planning for the upcoming season. This includes ordering seeds, updating our web site to include information on the new season, etc. Pruning begins in February as does seeding. This means that the greenhouse needs constant attention and watering. We are organizing our workshare crew and deciding what tasks need to be done and when. Life on the farm is a 24 hour/7 day a week job, particularly for me.
