As with any good project, the first steps should include learning everything that you can about the project, make a plan, and get started.
So far we have learned a bunch, but not everything yet (We are working on it though:)), we have a rough idea (but not a plan), and we got started this weekend.
It was an awesome day. We left in the morning with Chris driving Rowdy (our one-ton truck) and me and the kids in Syd (our Subaru Outback) to fetch some straw.

It was an awesome day. We left in the morning with Chris driving Rowdy (our one-ton truck) and me and the kids in Syd (our Subaru Outback) to fetch some straw.
We came back with 15 bales of straw, a plastic green house, and two sleeping babies.
The kids got to ride in Rowdy and they had a ton of fun. While they were sleeping, Chris and I unloaded the straw. In the rain.
And finally, we placed the bales. We also started conditioning the bales per Joel Karsten's instructions.
Next up: Continued conditioning, posts and wires, and then we plant our seeds!
In other news, we got our first sprouts in the little A-frame cold frame we made! I think they are raddishes... big surprise!
