Not only are our snap peas looking good aboveground, they're also looking good below the soil- with those pinkish nodules on the roots indicating the presence of rhizobia bacteria busy pulling nitrogen out of the air and fixing it in the soil.

When snowflakes form, they absorb nitrogen from the air; when the snow falls and melts, the nitrogen is released into the soil. That's why the old Yankee nickname for snow is "poor man's fertilizer." Snow can also help protect plants against the cold. It's been calculated that 10 inches of light snow can have an insulation value of R18, similar to a six inch layer of fiberglass insulation.

Due to expected severe weather conditions, the Winter Market will be closed this Saturday, January 29th. Please stay safe everyone!

If it doesn't stop raining here for a while, we're going to need some new equipment ... like the County Sea Horse Super-4, the first, and only, tractor to be driven across the English Channel ...
Horseradish Cleaning
About a month after it's planted, the horseradish gets its first "cleaning." Each plant is dug partway up, all the crowns except one are pulled off, and side suckers are removed. This encourages the plant to develop into one big root instead of a wild tangle of smaller roots. The Van Dessels have always called this process "cleaning," but in the Midwest it's known as "lifting" or "lifting and suckering". It's all done by hand, and is a rather labor-intensive process ...

Our listing for this week is a little slim, as we wait for crops to catch up (coming soon: arugula and snow peas!), but we have plenty of strawberries to make up for it!

Happy birthday to my brother David, without whom Van Dessel's Horseradish would not exist! I hope you show this to him. Thanks, David, for being a great big brother, and for all the patience you had with me as we were growing up. I hope your day is great, and also your coming year. By the way, I'm growing some horseradish in a small plot in my backyard (the "sand hill"!). The tallest tops are around 2 feet.
