Week 20 2011

Oct. 11th and Oct. 14th

WOW! What a gorgeous weekend! The sun was shining, there was a slight breeze and the nights were chilly. It was perfect. We were able to get a lot of work done on the farm. All the sweet taters are out of the ground and nestled in for curing. The grass in the orchard and blueberry patch is mowed, the irrigation in up and running (again) and the fall garden in looking great. Grandma Jeanie and Grandpa Butch were a huge help this weekend- thanks!
We are expecting a frost soon here in So. IL; it usually comes around the 15th. We are planning on covering up many of the plants to keep them going until the end of the CSA. We hope this will be successful.

Take care and enjoy the Fall,
Anne
