crop report

 

April 27 ~ We planted our corn earlier than many in our area, but it survived the snow and floodwaters in May…

…and for now is thriving.

June 24 ~ Tim took this pic with his phone a week ago with the Popper standing in the field.

Two days later it was up to Tim’s shoulder in that spot, which is about the top of the Popper’s head.  The corn grew about a foot in two days!

 

One week later - today, July 1, here’s the Popper again… holding a red dish towel above her head so that you can see where she’s at  :-)

Unlike last year, it’s been a good year to live on high ground.  Lord willing, we will harvest a good crop of corn in a few months!

 

Sing unto the Lord with thanksgiving; sing praise upon the harp unto our God:

Who covereth the heaven with clouds, who prepareth rain for the earth, who maketh grass to grow upon the mountains.

Psalm 147:7-8

  2. Yep. Around here the corn is knee high. It's always a race to see if it's ready for harvest before the fall rains make the fields too muddy to bring it in. Yours looks amazing!
