Another Rain Soaked Summer

We have been riddled with increasing rainfall here near Cooperstown, NY.  The tomatoes are green and ready to ripen.  Now is the time they need summer sun to become sweet and juicy - like any fruit.

Signs of early and late blight continue to sneak up on the plants each year - without sun - the disease progresses and kills the plant.

We plant lots of tomato plants but Mother nature is not cooperating!  Next year we'll just grow crops that do well in wet conditions - the kale and swiss chard looks great...
