Strawberry Time
We’ve had quite a bit of excitement the last 3 days. The Strawberries have ripened up and we’ve opened the field for picking. Here’s a photo of the crop. Tomorrow we’ll upload some pictures of our irises and show off the new pig race.
Hope to see you soon.

Frozen Strawberries
Icy strawberry plants and frost protection
A last blast of freezing weather threatened the strawberries, making for a short night’s sleep and a 0600 date with our frost protection sprinklers in the field. This image shows the ice on the plants which strangely enough insulates the blossoms. Hopefully this is the last use this season for the frost protection system. Cold and wet!!
