Things are starting to get a bit uncomfortably dry around here. We feel blessed to have received a quarter inch of rain last Thursday but that has been gulped up pretty quick by everything. We did get our 2nd rotation of sweet corn in on Friday but by today it was looking quite dry already. We have our drip irrigation set up on it now so it can drink all night… what a lush it is! Here is Jonas “fixing” a leak he found in the drip line.
still not fixed…. but I guess he’s cooled off enough.
