New sides

Josh helped Peter put new sides on the hoophouse up in the main field this morning.

Last year the sides had just been regular construction plastic, which did not hold up well in the weather, so Josh and Peter replaced it with greenhouse plastic.

I think the plan is to put in some early lettuce and other cold crops, but leave space to start melons. That way we have something for the first farmer's markets, but by the time the melons start to run, they will have plenty of room, because the lettuce will be long gone.
