Setting Plants

Some of the plants we grow are set with a retro-fitted tobacco transplanter.  We added new fingers to the setter and a new tank to create an efficient vegetable setter.  This picture is from late March.  Lots of colder crops can be set in march when started in a greenhouse.  People driving by the farm may have thought we were planting tobacco in March.  Don't worry we were planting broccoli and cauliflower.
