We weathered a similar hail storm last weekend and, happily, everything is growing along just fine despite tattered leaves. Since vegetables still grow like crazy in August, hopefully you guys will have a quick recovery time after a bit of cleanup. I'll keep my fingers crossed! ugh. Your poor tomatoes!

Sorry to hear about your crops.  We had the same thing happen here back in Mid June, plants will bounce back though.  Should make for interesting conversation for you CSA customers.  “Hey you see these holes in the spinach?  Hail hit my farm last week!”  A little more interesting then the standard supermarket fare.

Keep on truckin’

Matt
