Cold Weather

We have pretty much but the farm to bed for the winter.  I have started pruning the raspberries and it looks like we should have a good crop next year, weather permitting.  The National Weather Service has forecasted a very cold air mass coming in Monday and Tuesday.  I am concerned that our plants may not be as hardy as they could be because of the warm fall.  I am also concerned about our nursery stock and the pots freezing up.  On the positive side they say that it should snow before the coldest weather gets here, that will insulate the ground and the nursery stock.  We have disked under the mustard we grew as a biofumigant for the new blackberry planting.  We will be growing some mustard this spring to prepare some new raspberry ground.  Hope that you enjoy your Thanksgiving, the snow and .
