Greenhouse Seeding

Tonight was a cold night at the farm. Most of the sisters worked in the greenhouse planting seeds, while the men and a few other tough sisters worked outside pruning the grapevines. We had two new sister missionaries join the team--they are both named Sister Leitner. They really are sisters and live together in West Jordan. We're happy to have them on board.

Here they are working in the greenhouse planting celery and tomato seeds.


Here's Sister Leitner working on planting her seeds. The seed packet contained over 500 seeds and barely covered the very bottom of the packet. It looked like it was almost empty.



These teeny, tiny celery seeds were placed inside a plastic cup. A seed spoon was then used to carefully pull one seed out at a time.



One samba celery seed was placed in each hole of the celery crate. You had to really keep track of where you were in the process because the seed was so tiny that you couldn't see it next to the soil mixture.
