After a beautiful unseasonably warm autumn, cold weather and icy precipitation arrived
Friday.
Ken had been watching the weather and we went to the garden and covered some plants with fiber.
Ken set up a long hoopette over the fall carrot and beet crops.
Then as it neared dusk we changed hats and gloves and went to the mobile high tunnel. We covered plants inside the tunnel with fiber and finished just as a headlamp was necessary. It was a ghostly reminder of a Halloween night!
The following morning we went down with more fiber and set up a second layer on the tops of the plants for added protection.
Then Ken worked to seal the green house in the warmer afternoon
Now we wait and see how the plants will do!
