Well here comes another soggy month of May. Rain in the forecast for the next 7 days. We need it, it has been really dry the last month. Figures just as I get all the drip irrigation in place........ Things are going pretty well so far. Some seasonal pests starting to show up but nothing on a grand scale just yet. Tomatoes need to be pruned and trellised. Hope to get that done today and get the rest planted. Lawn is need of it's first haircut of the season, that going to have to wait. Ditch digging volunteers coming on Friday. Should be interesting with all the water coming down. Glad I put in drainage tile and back filled yesterday. Need to get alot of planting done and but am waiting to get my biodegradable mulch down first. Wind is a big issue trying to lay that stuff. Try it again today when I have some help. CSA starts in a few weeks. Need to add up my numbers but I think I am sold out or have one share left. New real local accounts as well. Nice article in the Bridge about the farm and myself. Thanks Sylvia for the kind words. Barre farmer's market starts at the end of the month. Still have a few things to track down so that I am ready for that as well. Bye.
