It finally happened folks. I spied some patches of frost this morning at the farm. It was a good reminder that it can happen at any moment and erring in the side of caution is the best practice. It was a beautiful out...
The farm season is trucking right along, folks. With the end of the summer semester last week means that it's going to be a quiet out on the farm for a bit. I've still got a couple of student workers coming out to work some...
Wow, what a week! That was some intense weather we just went through, both with the heat and the rain. We have definitely been experiencing drought-like conditions here in Dryden. We've had little to no significant rain over...
Here we are at week 4 folks, and I'm about to make my first weather post. Holy smokes, has it been a wacky start to the farm season. In my years of farming, just about every season has been unique, in of its self. And this...

Well, things were much more amenable weather-wise last week and that allowed us to be much more productive. But let me tell you, it’s a tale of two farms. I know I’ve said it before but the crops growing in the tunnels are...
Holy smokes, was it HOT last week!! We made it through, but it was definitely a struggle at times. The intense heat and no rain (what we got on Wednesday barely registered) made for some unhappy vegetables in the field....
I hope folks had a good weekend. We finally, for the first time since March, had a social distance outdoor gathering with another family and boy, was it nice, especially for the kids. I love my family and would be lost...
