Life on the Farm

Wow, that corn looks good! Ours won't be ready for another week or two. Tomatoes just starting to get ripe, too, and more summer squash and raspberries than we know what to do with.
bjrogg:
Picked first tomato yesterday WB. Sure is hard to beat the flavor of fresh from the garden sweet corn and tomatoes.
Pretty much everything fresh out of the garden.
The guys have been working at getting stuff ready in the shop. We have a lot of stuff to get ready and make repairs on.
I’ve been working in the fields, but I’m thinking I should be able to help in the shop today.
The first navy’s we planted are starting to turn. I’m thinking about another two weeks maybe three.

It’s hard to believe as dry as it’s been, but I’m finding white mold in some of our beans. I’m hoping it doesn’t spread to much. It’s late enough in the season now that hopefully it doesn’t hurt our harvest seriously. This can be a very devastating disease for us. Cool temperatures and heavy dews are the perfect environment for it.

When I got home last night I finished picking the first row of sweet corn. Then I cut the stalks off and put them in my pickup bed. Then I spread them out in my field.
I did this to give my cantaloupe and watermelon a little more room.

Haven’t had much time to work on personal projects lately.
Last night I put in some personal overtime and put my new ladder stand together. Then I watched the sunset
I put in a food plot this year and I know right where I want to set this stand up. Hopefully I can find the time to get it done.
Today the grandkids are coming over to help me with sweet corn. It’s always good to have their help. Especially since they are getting big enough to really help.
