Growing Season Update May 28, 2015

White Pine Farm Tomato Plants (taken May 28)

White Pine Farm Cows (taken May 28)the pile in front of the fence is garden compost.

The tomato plants have been growing nicely this year in the hoop house. The ants think of kale as their own personnel playground or they are hunting for aphids to milk, they will protect the aphids from any aphid natural predator as the aphids provide the ants with a food source. Dale set ant many traps out, hopefully between that and the Diatomaceous Earth we will get them under control, that should give the natural predators a chance to control the aphids.

The cattle are happy feeding in the lush pasture; they were actually frolicking and running to the fence because sometimes they get garden scraps. Next fall expect to see some of White Pine Farm beef for sale on the website.

Until Next Time
