Monday! Sep 26 05 // 01:17 pm // permalink Hoes I’ve Known: Diamond
 This is my second favorite hoe. We sing a lot out in the fields and early this year I decided to try to sing every song I know before the season is over. The hardest part of singing every song you know is trying to simply remember the songs - harder than remembering the words. The diamond hoe reminded me of about seven diamond songs. Now whenever I’m diamond hoeing I sing that Mary Lou Lord song, She’d Be a Diamond. I select the diamond when the tiniest weeds need to be removed. When all four edges are sharpened to a razor’s edge, even the microscopic sprouts are cut down. Easy to maneuver between seedlings and larger plants. Monday!

 Four more weeks of CSA. Been incredibly busy, but I think that’s understandable. This week a new intern starts, so we’ll have 6 workers. I hope to have a little more time to finish a post I started last week. So, sometime this week look for a post that covers the last three months. Highlights: Drought, fatigue, a wedding, some stitches, a swarm, tomato fights, record high heat, plans for the future, a frost date pool, new music, and the relentless sunshine. Thursday!

 We use this one a lot for clearing larger weeds from the paths between rows. When it’s sharp, it’s a real go-getter. Just don’t flatten that tire… |
