Freeze

Andrew labels varieties of tomatoes

I haven’t been to the farm yet this morn.  It got cold last night, even colder than Saturday night.  We lost a few tomatoes to the frost on Saturday night, but not many.  We had them covered with Agribon, and last night we put a double layer over every row.  It seems like that was prudent.  I don’t know the temp, but it feels like it got below 32 degrees.

I have a couple of friends with me this week, so that eases the work load.  We’ll survey the tomatoes (probably fine), and get to planting some more tomatoes, peppers, eggplant, corn, squash - all things that I have put off planting because I knew this cold weather was coming.
