Farm Journal ~ October
Although the fields surrounding our blueberry plants took on fall colors in late summer due to the drought there is a spectral quality to fall light. Acorns and pine cones are scattered along the paths. The crows have assumed control of the air space once again as the activity of their feathered cousins has quieted considerably.
We are irrigating our plants quite regularly, as you should be if you have any. All the rows have been weeded. We came upon an enormous paper wasp nest at the foot of one plant that we will have to attend to some early evening.
A buck was noted passing through and the dogs are certain some other elusive creature is afoot, not a rabbit, not a ground hog or a squirrel, could it be a weasel? Nature grounds us and uplifts us. Enjoy the fall and stay safe & well everyone!
