    Pumpkins!

    @Henderson - Yeah, that is what the family wants to do. I don't! We have too much going on already. It has been a wonderful year for pumpkins! They are growing like crazy. We even have some white ones (those aren't very big).

    Setting up stand for EBT

    Interesting! We actually sell meat too at our shop. Can you use SNAP benefits for something like that? I heard they were pretty picky on what you could use benefits on.

    Have phones ended walkie-talkies on farm?

    Call me old school, we still use walkie-talkie's. We also use cell phones but we do use those too. Honestly I think it's easier - push button and talk. I bet you can find some online.

    Hot air balloons

    That's awesome that you house these guys. I've always wondered where they stay. I imagine they travel all around (balloonist). I've never been up in one but I have "chased" them. I've helped take them down, fold them up and drink the celebratory champagne after.

    Anyone canning?

    We have been canning and freezing. We do it at night when it's cooler out. @Katie We put our tomatoes in boiling hot water. The skins peel right off.

    Setting up stand for EBT

    With so many people getting help these days we thought we would look into accepting EBT as a payment. Does anyone know anything about getting started with this? Any help is appreciated.

    Pumpkins!

    We have loads and loads of pumpkins! We picked a bunch but left a bunch. My children want to enter a pumpkin contest! We took a load to a local farm store to sell. Wish us luck!

    Milwaukee tools

    That stinks for sure! Why are they charging you any money if it's under warranty? I would steer clear from Milwaukee tools if I was having that many issues.

    Leaves changing

    It's too early for fall but I have noticed that some of the leaves are changing color already! Eek! It's been a hot and humid summer but I'm not ready for fall yet.

    Mission BBQ

    I ate at one of these once. It was delicious! I love restaurants that give you multiple BBQ sauce choices. Do they still do that? I'm not sure what goes anymore with covid restrictions.

    Intercropping

    We didn't dig into this yet. We didn't do enough research and with covid we didn't want to waste any money or field space. We are doing research now and I hope to do this next season.

    Floods!!

    We had a flood when I was a small child. We lost part of our barn and several animals! I'm thankful to read that your neighbor was able to move his.

    Watering flowers

    My wife waters the flowers daily too (especially when it's crazy hot out). The hanging baskets tend to die off if she doesn't. She says it is because it is a different soil.

    Do you name them?

    I love it @RichZ and @Ritar. I agree that you should name your animals! I name some tractors, I have too many to name them all. I'm not very creative either. I've got Farmy1, Farmy2...

    NY Governor

    Has anyone been watching the news? What a shame... Governor Cuomo is in a big pot of "disgusting hurt" right now. I really hope that criminal charges are sought against him. What a sad time for NYers.
