After weeks of cold work from a group of hardy volunteers, the high tunnel is ready to have plastic put on it! We plan to put the plastic on THIS SUNDAY, December 8, at 2:00PM (right after the Farm Feast). We estimate it will take 12-15 people around 1-2 hours to complete. The weather needs to be dry and not too windy - right now Sunday is forecast to be sunny and 50 degrees! Please join us for an afternoon outside as we get the high tunnel ready to grow winter crops!
