It's Fall

Fall lasted for a couple of weeks, a couple of weeks ago.  It switched abruptly to winter on Halloween Night.  The leaves haven't fallen yet but the temperatures have.

Wow, where to begin, breaking new ground on the new farm has been challenging, exciting and totally overwhelming for the 2 of us.

Last fall we began working to transform a hillside cow pasture, over run with sumac and ragweed, into a system of terraced planting spaces that utilizes the rain water that had been rutting out our road to irrigate the field.  Nick named Terrace Heights; the system currently includes 2 swales, a collection pool and 4 terraces.

Vertical PVC Grow Tubes in the Greenhouse hold lettuce strawberry and Nasturtium.  They get watered from the top and in trickles down better than money.

It's April 20th; instead of preparing for our annual party that is not happening AGAIN, I sit here contemplating our progress through the wackiest year ever.   We are essentially shut ins.  So we're making lots of progress on the farm.
