Is it to early to say the dog days of summer are here?  I wouldn't say it this early if it really rained and we could catch our breath, but it has not been in our cards for real precipatation, compared to others portions of the northeast.  However, that is how the cookie crumbles sometime1 read more »

Well this was a weird week that's for sure.  The smoke that rolled in from Canada was defiantly odd and unpleasant, especially when your work office is the outdoors.  Great seeing fresh air come back to us.  The farms are very very dry and we are full on irrigation mode right now.&nb1 read more »

And just like that June is here!  We are extremely busy on the farm this time of the year, more so than normal as mother nature has kept us in a dry pattern.  Even though we picked up some light showers last weekend, the below average levels have put us in a spot that we must start irriga1 read more »
