The Munroe field is home to this season's garlic crop as well as our early cauliflower and broccoli.
Due to our, cold damp spring, we have been a bit behind the eight ball here at Boistfort Valley Farm. In an attempt to catch up and save time we followed through on a diabolical plan to prep our corn ground in record time.
You can see in the above photo, that we are dealing with a cover crop that almost reaches the hood of the tractor.
As I mowed with a seven foot mulcher, Aaron followed behind with the plows. Together we went from shoulder high grass to plowed ground at a rate of 3.5 mph. This felt like flying after spending three days on the transplant tractor moving at a mind numbing 0.5 mph., and it sure did shine up those plows.
