Bye-bye, sweet peppers…

30 Jul 201913 Nov 2007 by Mike (tfb)
Frost-killed sweet peppers

A mildly golden late afternoon sun turned the beds of dead peppers into a stunningly rich sea of color amongst the greens and browns. Peppers seem to have their own way of dying off in the cold (at least, under … Read the rest

More fall finishing

14 Nov 200712 Nov 2007 by Mike (tfb)

Fall clean-up is moving along bit by bit between the weather. Half the field is cleared, fertilized, and tilled or about to be. The rest is mostly covered by oats and a little rye. The Kubota compact tractor is ready … Read the rest

Root cellar lite

15 Mar 20107 Nov 2007 by Mike (tfb)

Broccoli vs cauliflower

9 Nov 20076 Nov 2007 by Mike (tfb)

One broccoli (Early Dividend), one cauliflower (Early Dawn), but what’s that Violet Queen in the middle? The EDs are standbys, the VQ is new. It looks like broccoli, cooks like broccoli, tastes like broccoli, but it’s in the seed catalog … Read the rest
