Well, kiddo #2 came along and it's a little harder to stay awake into the evening on a computer. But the season was awesome! Little rain, but awesome. To recap:
Rebuilt hoophouse doors to increase ventilation, and decrease frustration.
Observed rogue chickens in their natural habitat.
Expanded the north field
Rebuilt the seedling house in a better location.
Again, to increase ventilation and decrease frustration.
Started a new raspberry patch
Upped my potato growing game. Disc hillers on the toolbar really helped speed things along. (we're in Maine for goodness sakes, gotta grow potatoes)
Brought tons of veggies to Bowdoinham and restaurants and natural food stores.
Watered Watered Watered Watered Watered Watered Watered Watered
It was a really dry summer.
But as long as it got water, it grew!
Moved chickens and harvested good compost supplies.
Installed sprinklers on timers. Awesome, I can go on deliveries and my seedlings won't die.
Made time to eat plenty of ice cream
Broke the Gravely brush hog.
(key on main gear broke, (as it should) which then chewed up the driveshaft (as it shouldn't))
And then fixed it!
Observed frost-killed buckwheat, and not-frost-killed oats cover crop.
One tree decided to change color before the others.
