Irrigation is ON!

Sorry no pics for this yet, but we've now got the irrigation system in place and running at the LBC garden. This is a big step forward, with summer's heat upon us. I was surprised to see that all the tomatoes and cukes survived last week's heat with no ill effects despite their having been left quite some time without water. Not only did they survive, but a few soybeans popped up too. Go figure. Tonight we dug the trench for the irrigation tubing and planted 2 rows of corn + beans. Good times.
