I am CuTRis

At CuTRis Hill Farms, we still pick, wash and truck our carrots the old fashioned way.

This honeydew grew itself, compliments of compost bin soil.

13 good Honeycrisp 10 rotten

I think it's a honeydew.

I guess I can't take my garden down yet when it's producing like this.

I have to have nets on my apple trees to keep the deer from eating them. My Chestnut Crabapples are ready now, So everyday a few more drop to the bottom of the net.

I call this small black bell pepper, "Wednesday."

The "dad signal" went up and my wife was shouting about something, and when I asked her what was going on, she had her bug fighting stick, which she says is just to push the plants aside, but I know a bug fighting stick when I see one! She said there was a small rabbit in her garden laying dead on its side by her spinach. I'm the only one who grows spinach, so I told her I didn't want to deal with the dead rabbit. Then I got that look . Because of course I'm supposed to be the one to go deal with it. But then she cracked me up by telling me we should send in a probe! Suddenly I was in a Star Trek episode. I told her to grab a bag and I went and got a stick. I found the rabbit laying next to her carrots, aka, spinach. So I fished it out with the stick and then put it in the bag to put in the garbage. Yay dad!

Radish Strawberries

Cilantro fresh from the garden

I picked Brussels Sprouts from the (winter) garden to go with the turkey...

I had to cover them with a net, but I finally got apples this year. Previously, the deer ate the trees, leaves branches and all.
