the straw coverth

Saturday is the DAY! If the plastic doesn't get on the hoophouse Sat., it may never happen. Busy week at the farm. Bet you thought this time of year we just sat around watching tv? The patch is about 1/2 covered w/straw. The weather has been beautiful for working outside, how long can it last?
.....just settled down for a long winters nap.

This is the tagging I use. I usually purchase new tags every year. Each year they get thinner and more light weight than the year before! Next year they will probably made of tin foil! All the straw is snugged in by hand, as we have to work around the tags, and to make sure each rhizome is tucked in.
