This is the time of year when it really feels like a farm around here. The hay fields are cut and curing, crops are growing, and we just finished installing all of the drip irrigation systems. This eliminates the time consuming process of watering by hand (our typical method of keeping things growing through the dry Oregon summers).
I spent the whole day Saturday walking behind a tiller cultivating between rows so hoeing is only required where the tiller can’t reach. Basically, we have things under control at the moment . . . which is always a good feeling. This buys me some time to start working on summer farm maintenance projects.
I hope that you are able to take time to enjoy the summer and that your gardens are growing and producing well. ~Mike
