    The lacinato kale seeds just went into their starter egg cartons. Onion seeds should have gone in too by now, but the store was out and I'm not that together right now. Waiting in the wings are some corn, turnips, and beet seed packets. I'm also gonna chunk up a bunch of potatoes and plant them.

Cool, Ive had good luck with direct seeding kale in seattle, not so much on the onions (starts work fine though, harvested half a dozen leeks last year (out of a dozen planted). Your acrage is more of a farm but if you are only keeping a small garden i recommend seedsnow.com at 99c per a small seed packet it cant be beat. I always run out of room for starts before I run out of seed, on direct sow not so much due to waste and inaccuracy.
