Fall Weather

Wednesday, May 12th felt a lot like fall again.  It was 45 and breezy.  Rain fell all day Tuesday, so the ground was soaked.  We weren't able to do much more than fill in the herb garden paths with more wood chips and hand pull weeds in the spinach and the old herb garden.  It was a cold, wet, muddy job.  On the bright side, another intern joined us for the first time, Megan.  She has some great recent experience on a farm in Pennsylvania, so she will be a good addition to the team.

Claire and Jake had another meeting with the builders of the greenhouse, which is still leaking!  Hopefully some progress will be made.  The grand opening is coming soon!

In the afternoon, we shelled last seasons' popcorn and black beans at the office.  This was a nice change for the afternoon as it was getting cold just being out in the wind with wet, muddy hands (even protected by gloves).  Today it's still dreary and cold outside, but supposedly it's going to be warmer tomorrow.  Fingers crossed!
