Need to get out of a maze? This would not help @craigmelvin as it's from 2013. Glad you eventually found your way out! Hope you enjoyed your visit - Farmer Tom.
@gilsimmons I guess I'm not painting the barn this morning. What ever will I do if I can't work outside? π #Maintenance ! At least the 100s of π seedlings planted yesterday are being nourished! Always look on the bright side of life! (+whistle segment from Python) - Farmer Tom
Our farm team are exited with the launch of our gorgeous new farm and winery websites. Both are brimming with great information, along with beautiful images and videos. Make sure to give both a deep dive!

As we approach Memorial Day, a reminder of those long ago who gave ultimate sacrifice. DC3s fly by from Oxford airport over the farm this afternoon. Flying over the old Beacon#8 (trivia: do you know what that is?)
Data from the weather station in our vineyard is publicly accessible. It is part of a network that feeds into specialized weather forecasts for fruit growers in the NY/NewEngland area. https://t.co/ts8OfvNpYr
Cold morning today. More cold later in week. Weather station keeps farmers informed, not only on air temps, but soil probes for ground temps where roots are ready to awaken.
8-10yrs from now, someone will be decorating a tree for Christmas that was planted during an earthquake. Farm work continues. #treeplant season. @gilsimmons@USGS felt in 06484
