| Peas Shoot |
So I have two days to come up with my planting strategy. I have decided that I will be growing baby lettuce mixes, with edible flowers, and shoots. The perfect trio for a mind blowing salad mix that the chefs will love! I will be growing about 250 lettuce plants per 4' x 4' table. I ordered my favorite spicy mustard mesclun mix from FedCo seed company. I grew this in the past and had great success selling it at the farmers markets.I will also plant a classic lettuce mix, spinach, and arugula.

| Chive |
My edible flowers will consist of nasturtiums, purple garlic chive cone flowers, and possibly some borage outside. Im thinking sunflower and pea shoots. I need to pick a third but haven't yet. I really need to focus on timing out the rotation so I can completely utilize my two tables. The plan is to have a weekly rotational harvest indoors and out. This way I can send out a weekly fax with what I have available. So tonight I will sit down and think numbers and space. Im sure I wont get this perfect right from the start. It will probably take at least a couple rotations to get the timing worked out, but at least there is a goal in mind.
