Sadly, today we had to pull 24 just-fruiting, beautiful tomato plants from the field because they've been infected with Late Blight, a fungal pathogen. We've had so much rain lately, which is probably what created the perfect growing conditions for the blight. Fingers crossed that removing that bit from the fields put a stop to the spreading of disease....
On the upside, Wayne and I stopped by the Grafton Farmer's Market for the opening day today and shared a delicious mini strawberry-rhubarb pie, mmmm! Also, two stink bugs were mating on my shirtsleeve today, but then I lost the male and just got a pic of the female. Then an inchworm visited Wayne and I whilst we were eating our yummy pie. Enjoy!
daily adventures, thoughts, ramblings - non-filtered, like pure sunlight delivering doses of vitamin D
