    Jess! I can’t believe how this farm has grown in just two seasons! So jealous (in a good way) 😮. I love watching everything you do. It gives me such inspiration. I smiled so big watching the boys get in the pond with their kayaks! Farm kids have the best memories.

  • @rainspringing

    Congrats on corn sprouts! Hope you have mockingbirds to chase away any crows! We cheer ours on, and then they finish off in a near tree with a little crazy tune picked up who knows where. Love how seeds are like, "hey! here I am!, you dropped me here, in this somewhat inhospitable place!, no trouble, I'll just grow here until you can see me..." 😄
    No rain for us an hour away since April, and none really forecast until the 23rd. Concrete planters we can sort of keep up with. If the plant can take some drought, but that's about the realistic limit for much growing, in sunlight, outside of winter for us. Good luck with any hanging baskets.
    I'm really surprised, now that you have the high tunnels open, that birds aren't taking 90% of the strawberries. Maybe it's the height? They come right up on our porch, or right next to where we working, so it's not human activity. 😅Figuring up a way to create a section in our high demand shade, with netting, so we get to have a patch for us.
    Strawberries really started living through summer once they were in deep shade. The alpine strawberries started winter of 2021 are stealing the show though. Might work out nicely in a greenstalk because they don't seem to need quite as much...of everything.

    Happy to tell you that after not giving up on my one remaining Globe artichoke I planted 2 years ago through very cold and really odd weather here in the Mohave Desert, Zone 8B technically, the plant has fruited! The one was of three originally sprouted and grown in 20" diameter pots. Hooray! I was so excited to see the darling 1" artichoke appear today! Wow. Worth covering with fabric and plastic and hoping year to year to now 3rd season from seed.
