Stick framing and field work

details to come



This afternoon, the field crew dividied.  Half worked on pruning the fall-bearing raspberries while the others went to the greenhouse.  Sophia and I continued work on the new greenhouse tables while Tyson and Stephen worked on the vent for the greenhouse.

Halfway through the afternoon, our group reunited and drove to Blue Ox Farm, where Carlen gave us a detailed lesson on pruning blueberry bushes.  It was beautiful down in that blueberry valley.   The cold was tolerable because we were all imagining our July blueberry picking that is not too long away.
