We had a bit of an issue with the sweet corn this week. The big rainstorms we had at the start of the week caused the creek to get up and jump the bank into the corn field. It was only a foot or less high, but I didn't want to take a chance on losing the crop if it rained again, so I pulled up my muck boots and got to picking!

Thankfully the water receded in the next day or two, but I didn't want to take a chance!

That's all for this week! have a great week and don't forget to wash your produce!!
