Interesting Finds #6
The other day I asked the farm owners what the biggest threat is for their crops as organic farmers and they replied that it is the weather. It has been drier for them the past few years than when they originally started farming nine years ago. They have to water their crops sometimes and I wondered how they would water as there was no sign of a sprinkling system. Today, after we transplanted veggies that were started in their greenhouse we found out just how they water the crops. By watering cans. They did fill up an old stainless steel bathtub with water and transported it in a small farm pick up truck near the crops and we watered each plant for 20 seconds.
