Rain...FFS!

Just when you thought the bulk of the rain had passed and we could look forward to getting some work done, the weather takes a turn and it looks like rain again all week.  Hard luck farming!  It's rained so much you can't drive a tractor on the fields.  Hard to lay down plastic mulch without the tractor.

Had a decent weekend at the farm except for yesterday (RAIN!).  Got a lot done Saturday in terms of getting closer to the big planting days. I can't tell you how much of a great experience it has been this spring, with the unpredictable weather, bad weather and all around "emergencies" that spring up around the farm.  I have learned that nothing ever goes according to plan on the farm and do not plan to do tomorrow what  you could do today because tomorrow the pigs are going to get out!
