When it rains...

When it rains it...

Wait a minute, it didn't rain! After all the talk for a week of the "Memorial Day Storms!" we had exactly NO rain, and we were counting on it!

We put in a few thousand more feet of row crops (lettuce, carrots, beets, turnips, parsley, ect, ect), 300 more feet of potatoes, and hundreds of starts, tomatoes, peppers, and cucumbers. And then we waited for the rain, which never came...

Farmer's Prayer:
Please let it rain,
But not to much...

So this morning poor hubby gets to water all of our transplants! As we have yet to expand our irrigation system (ouch, more money: seems to have been going out like water this year, thank goodness for my mom's kind gift and our CSA deposits!) he'll do it with old fashioned hoses...
