2010 photos

We've been busy and have gotten behind in posting photos, so this is a compilation of the year so far in pictures.

Snapdragons looked good, but didn't make great cuts this year.

She's a beauty, made around 1959, originally a diesel engine, replaced later with a gas engine.

Laurie takes the first drive.

LSU Purple Figs

For some reason, praying mantis like to hang out on the fruit tree cages.

In September, we took a field trip to buy locally grown barley straw to use for algae control next year in the pond.

First significant crop off the farm this year - mixed sweet peppers.

Cherry tomatoes, trellised with the help of CSA'er Rick.

Left to right: cherry tomatoes, sweet potatoes, sweet peppers.

Finally had time and figured out how to tip the barrels over that we bought last year. The farm was too wet to move a tractor near where they were for most of that year. We're finally working off the very long list of postponed jobs from 2009.
