A visit with Farmer Roger

• Missed my morning weather entry. Busy all day. Overcast & cool. #
• Just back from our farm & family potluck. Lots of great food. We brought kohlrabi carrot slaw and pumpkin apple pecan bread. #
• Looks like this morning's shower will continue for a while. #
• Juan & Luis have finished moving the straw bale pyramids to the compost pile. They will start pruning raspberries tomorrow. #
• Dark clouds blocking off the last bits of sun and blue sky. Light shower starting up. #
• Off to Woodinville for chicken feed & goat & alpaca feed. #
• A beautiful morning. Sunny & cool. The 2/3 inch of rain from the last two days is still draining off. #
• Juan & Luis are patching shed roofs this morning. I'm still buried in reports – trying to pin down where all the money went this year. #
• A briglht sunny morning, if chilly. Fog lingers over the river. #
• Spent too much time at the desk today. Sun will be gone tomorrow. Expect the crew to finish up raspberry pruning & other odds & ends Friday, #
• Heavy rain for a couple of hrs (0.15 in). Stopped for now. Forecast is for some sun & some rain. Maybe a thunderstorm. Doesn't mention snow. #
• Hey, the sun is shining! Heading out for a farm walkabout. #
• 2nd to last rye grain cover crop planting is up today. #
• Field crew last day. Goodby for the winter to Rob, Evert, Juan, Luis, & Rosalio. Stewart & Keith finished last week. #
• Headed home. Frost on the windshield. #
• Gray overcast day. Frosty earlier. #
• Had meeting earlier with the farm management committee / main investors. Discuss changes for next year. #
• Thanks @ReadersToEaters for leading an interesting & stimulating discussion on food literacy / policy / & kids / & schools / and more. #
