Fields of Alliums and garden work

This morning, we moved the sheep and the cows to pasture.  What a relief to see these animals on green grass instead of mucky brown paddocks!

Once that was complete,  most of us went to the North Orange fields to plant alliums--the plant group of shallots, onions, scallions, leeks, etc.

In the afternoon, our group worked in the garden and then went to help with the continuing allium planting.
