Tarp down, sprouts up

This year, we are trying something new to thwart the squash vine borers: we're covering our squash and pumpkins with Agribon cover. It allows the sun and rain in, but keeps out insects. We'll also apply a BT (Bacillus thuringiensis) spray to get any find themselves under the cover.



Many of the seeds are sprouted, including the beans, corn, and squash of our three sisters garden.

Our greens are off to a nice start, too.
