Farm Happenings at Strawberry Hill Farm
Tomatoes Weather the Drought
We continue to be extremely dry at the farm, with very little rain in August and so far in September. Somehow the tomatoes are still producing and ripening fast, with just minimal irrigation. We still have red raspberries as well, though the supply is dwindling for lack of rain. Some other crops ar1 read more »
Hot and Dry!
It’s been a hot, dry summer, and the trend is continuing. At the farm, running drip irrigation (sparingly) and watering crops is getting old! We could use a good soaking rain.

High and Dry
High heat and little rain have marked this summer season so far. The good news is that crops are ripening earlier than usual. The bad news is that Ron had to get out the irrigation lines, which of course he did right before we had 2 inches of rain! It was so dry, however, that the gardens are still1 read more »
