Our New Sheep Arrive, The Wind is Brutal and a Hard Freeze Threatens the Hoop House Crops
We have some exciting new animals here on the farm. This week we welcome 4 katahdin ram lambs to the farm. We will be raising these boys on pasture for the summer for an early fall butcher. We are really enjoying our new animals.
The wind plays havoc with our equipment and makes setting a plumb line impossible for Jose. He wants to get the hoop houses lined up correctly so we can install end walls. The wind tortures him before he quits.
We also get a very cold night that threatens the crops in the hoop houses. Luckily Jose took the time to double cover everything and it looks like it did the job. We don't find any freeze damage on the crops.
