Just back from a half day at the University of Guelph's Centre for Urban Organic Agriculture... David's debriefing comment sums it up best: nice, but there wasn't anything progressively urban about their 2 acres of hand-worked crops, although the touches of permaculture (perennials, companion planting, contour planting) were cool to see.
We are feeling the lull of regular summer-hot days, harvesting, weeding, and planting more for the fall. We will surely break out of it this week with some extra-long hay days (second cut). Soon enough, we will be losing much of our crew to school and other jobs, start cleaning up the fields, and bring out the layers to fight the fall chill at work...
OK. Enough. Whining, wistful, time to say goodnight. Goodnight!
