Today was much cooler than the past two scorchers, so we planted and weeded as much as possible until market load-up.

June 25th - Still Hot, but Bearable
It was 90 degrees as we weeded and hoed, but this was much more bearable than yesterday. Napa cabbage harvested, basil pinched, and leeks completely weeded.

June 23rd - Field Irrigation and Pig Fencing
Today was the first work day of a record-breaking heat wave in New England. We harvested in short spikes with breaks in between then set up some irrigation lines.
