As everyone says around here, “Summer is short in Duluth.” It’s not officially summer yet, so it’s especially nice that it’s been feeling like summer around here! Almost all the veggies love it, I love it . . . the only ones who really wish for cooler temps are the piggies. They like it about 50-60 degrees, so we try to keep them cool with water- and mud-baths when necessary. Check out a couple new videos of the pigs at the bottom of this post. As you can see, they’re very social and didn’t understand why I wasn’t getting in the pen with them to give them back scratches!
Besides its future use as a potting shed/winter greenhouse, the shipping container also makes a good place to take overview photos of the farm. Everything is cooking along pretty well; the only big thing left to get into the ground is the peppers, which we should be able to accomplish in the next few days.
