Starting spring vegetables

Turning under the wheat one row at a time for my spring garden. This row will be sugar snap peas which will go in February 1 along with onion and leek transplants. Tilling in the wheat will add nitrogen and organic matter to the bed, and the wheat that is left standing will help keep down weeds and act as a windbreak. I also plan to harvest some for bread.
