Today we’re launching an experimental little project here at the Frog Bottom blog: one photo every day, Monday through Friday.  We hope it’ll tell a quiet tale of how a farm year unfolds.

In this photo, Frog Bottom workers Shannon and Claire work their biceps to clear weeds from the much-neglected south side of our greenhouse, in preparation for covering the greenhouse with shade cloth.  This shade cloth will allow us to do things like grow transplants and cure sweet potatoes and winter squash in the heat of high summer, when the greenhouse gets super toasty.
