A Year in Review and What’s Next!

Dear Friends,

All this snow, cold and wind has slowed our progress with the annual blueberry pruning.  Each year I color in a farm map, section by section, recording the pruning progress in the field.  I use a different color pencil for each month.  As of this writing it does not look like maps of recent years.  There are a lot of uncolored sections.  This makes me feel a bit anxious.  I know farmers need to roll with the weather and hope for a better next year, but for me this is a work in progress.
