Sun on my shoulders was a welcome feeling. However, the ice-cold droplets falling on me as the breeze shook condensation from the high tunnel roof was some form of farm torture! So goes spring.
Here’s a look around the farm this morning after yesterday’s heavy, slushy snow.
Snow’s mostly gone. The farm sits on a hill, so the sun touches it early.
Spinach doesn’t mind the cold, and didn’t miss a beat with the inch of slush-snow yesterday.
Tomatoes and peppers in the high tunnels are doing just fine. The snow clumps outside slid off the plastic.
Lettuce in the Big Tunnel.
