It was a perfect day; I dread the summer.

Today was beautiful and perfect and I had to come inside because it was too nice and I was afraid of getting high on it.

The fog rolled out by midday today after nearly a week of clouds and precipitation. The plants and animals all seemed eager for a more efficient photosynthesis/vitamin D synthesis.

The cover crop is lush.

In less than two weeks it has tripled in height. These plants have plodded on through the winter growing but barely.

Meanwhile, our slightly less hardy crops are starting to fill the field or emerge.



And in the hoop house...
















This is our new rooster, named after a Muppet Show character which I do not remember, who is being taught to tango?
