Wheat is already up, but it has needed watering twice already. We need a good winter with lots of snow.

We're planting our #mariswidgeon #wheat again. This year we disced the field to knock down weeds before planting. Seeding rate was about 55lb/ac. We also planted Rye, right next door. Everything was put in with a garden seeder and then watered in. Between the rows we used a scuffle blade on the high-wheel hoe.

Time for the #potato harvest! We got a lot more #norlandred than usual. I also had a little assistance from my helper, for a little while. 138 lb., Which is good considering how little work I put into them. But that's the best part about potatoes!

Dabbling at #thatching at @schumacherfarmpark for the harvest fest. Definitely a learning experience. Just finished the brow course. Need more density!

All loaded up for the @schumacherfarmpark threshing day tomorrow. I'll be #thatching my practice roof with #combedwheatreed #mariswidgeon and #rye straw.

It's been our best ever year of #peppers in the #hightunnel. We grow #kingofthenorth #bellpeppers and #hatchchile from New Mexico.
