Trying its very best to outgrow our ‘organic weeds’. One of the challenges of maintaining a field of pumpkins, or any organically grown field-crop for that matter, is weed pressure. No matter how much you cultivate or disc or fuss or worry, the weeds will march down the aisles and try and take over the dang field! As I walk along the rows, wringing my hands and cussing, I’m also amazed and grateful and full of hope. Farming is pretty nuts especially when no one has done this before.
