One Beds and Pests


    This week in Sustainable Agriculture, we have started working on our final one bed presentations. It has been a great opportunity to reflect on our year so far as we think about how much all of our one beds have changed! Now that we have entered the rainy season, our farm days may be limited or cut short, however, we are grateful for the nutrients the rain brings and the water we could save! This Tuesday, we were able to go out to the farm to check up on everything after a long week off, and we were met with a sad surprise. It seems as if over break, something ate most of our class beets. The lucky unaffected ones were harvested for this week's market, to make sure our surprise companion does not make their return and finish them all off. We are trying to stay positive! If the weather allows for harvesting, we will be holding our semester's last market day this coming friday.  We hope that it will be a successful market, since you can make many fun dishes with our yummy food, as we all got to try during our last farm to fork, completed over break. See you next week!
