NEW SHADE HOUSE
An interior shot of our new shade structure. Actually it is nothing more than PVC hoops covered with a giant shade cloth, 100 feet long! The importance of the structure is keeping the soil COOL so we can grow spinach and lettuces all summer long. The average soil temperature in the shade house is 5d cooler than the field soil temperature! That's remarkable....and a big difference for those cool-loving crops.
Come to the markets to taste our spinach and lettuces all summer!
