Too wet to pick.
Several weeks ago I was praising the Lord for the blessing of rain. For the last week I’ve been asking God, “What are you doing “?
In the vegetable business when we need the rain, it’s a blessing. When we don’t need it, it seems like a punishment.
Excess rain disrupts harvest schedules.
Cucumbers get too big for pickling.
Tomatoes crack.
Some produce is more prone to rot.
Weeds emerge and get out of control.
Even in life we get rainy spells. I think God uses those rainy spells to build our character.
I think if we can tough it out a little longer, the sun will eventually come out and dry things off and in 3 weeks we’ll be asking for some more rain.
Thanks to all who came out yesterday and picked what was available while it was dry.
