On Our Farm
It is a little hectic these days with
rain several days each week, grass growing rapidly, trying to prepare for
additional netting over new plants, and berries coming along earlier than
usual. The blackberries look much better than last
year, but we are still having trouble with cane blight. The earliest blackberries will start about
the same time as the blueberries.
We've had trouble with the web server
so we have moved to a new service. We
are sorry to have been out of touch for so long.

2012 - It has been a nervous
spring. The warm weather in March caused
early growth and we fully expected to lose the crop in the subsequent cold
snaps. However, it appears there will be
a crop after all. The flower and fruit
development are about three weeks earlier than normal so we expect to start
picking in mid-June.
