Well, that seemed to end abruptly. After getting my wish of some unseasonably warm and dry weather, things came crashing back to the fall that we know and love.
I was able to work ground where we plan on planting next...
Well, we got that stretch of nice weather that we needed and it definitely made an impact. First of all, both the field and tunnel crops enjoyed it. It's really been the perfect weather with temps in the low 70s and lots of...
I keep waiting for that stretch of unseasonably warm days. Don't get me wrong, it's been a beautiful start to fall but it would be nice to get some days of solid sun and warmth. The garlic still needs to get planted and we...
Well, fall has seemed to escalate quickly. Leaves are beginning to make their beautiful transformation and my wife and I are starting to go back and forth about turning on the heat. After the summer we had the cooler...

Ok, so I guess I shouldn't have complained about how hot it was because we got...

We are back. Sorry for the technology issues that we had last week. Isn't it funny that these issues always arise at the most inconvenient times?
It's been a tale of two seasons recently. First, we had a preview of fall...
We had a pretty good stretch of weather the end of last week and through the weekend. The ground was starting to dry out but then today (Tuesday) hit. I think if it stays mostly dry for the rest of the week, we should be...
