🌱 Life on the Farm: Us versus the little buggers! 🐛
We’re growing vegetables for your table, but the armyworms seem to think we planted a buffet just for them!
They’re helping themselves to our broccoli, bok choy, green beans, tomatoes, napa cabbage, cauliflower, and kale. These two photos tell the story: damage on the front of a broccoli leaf, then a peek underneath reveals the hungry culprits! 😬
This is part of life as a certified organic farmer. We can’t simply reach for conventional pesticides to manage these buggers. How we protect our crops matters just as much as how we grow them.
So we scout our fields every day, checking plants, turning over leaves, and squashing as many armyworms as we can before they do more damage.
It’s hands-on work—dirty hands, squashed bugs, and plenty of determination! We’ve put too much care into these vegetables to let the bugs have them all. 💚
