So I took the studded tires off my truck on Wednesday. I also, throwing caution to the wind, took the snow thrower off my tractor. So If we get 3 feet of snow in the next few days it's my fault and I will take complete responsibility.
All that being said, I really do think the snow is done for the year, so much so that I tilled up the garden, and built a raised bed for the strawberries. I hope to get the strawberries in the ground this week. maybe next with a good mulch cover and a tent over them for the time being. It still gets frosty here at night.
A big part of farming and gardening in this area is guarding against frost. This year we have a few ideas about that. One is using the Whizbang Row Cover Hoop System in some areas for some crops. We'll let you know how it works. Click on the wizbang link here it's good reading
