We recently invited 3 adorable young British travelers to stay at the farm.  This morning, they helped us unload a truck load of straw (than you Juliana and Danny for the generous donation!)

















We started sheet mulching one field to build soil for fall planting. 


















Our first compost pile just got retired.

















Last full moon


















Potatoes are coming out




















Applying compost tea to the newly planted Radish beds


Water Situation Update
We got two bids for well drilling, both around $8,000.  We are still exploring the option of installing a large water tank with a booster pump.  We'll be deciding this week which option we choose.  We've raised $300 so far.  If you can spare a few dollars, you can donate here.
