A perfect day for planting groundcherries and goldenberries! Thanks to the organizing super powers of grad students @EliseTomaszews1 and @DaleSavanah plus the generous help of others we’re off to a great start.

What a beautiful Ithaca day to get our Physalis in the ground and off to growing. So thankful for how generous people are with offering help, truly could not have done this alone.

I am growing 4 varieties of Psysalis in my garden this year and am so impressed. They are outperforming everything so far!
