How's the ol back holding up after 4+ years of farming? Any stretching routines or practices you'd recommend?

How do you handle the carrot root fly? Or does it trouble your farm at all?

@@farmtablewest5991 Wow that's interesting! Maybe it's the cold you get. Here in Oregon I've seen a few carrots here and there tunneled around by the little buggers, but it hasn't ruined too much.

Might try adding some wood ash to your soil. Have found that really helps, with several insect problems@@joshuahoyer1279.

@@farmtablewest5991 big corporations will go for multi year reports especially when they have a poor year to report because even if there were good reasons for the negative year it can appear to an investor that they are not so stable. Homesteaders can have bad years as well as good. If they have had consecutively higher yields each year that is awesome and I'd love to here what they attribute that growth to; changed seed companies, started adding additional amendments, expanded garden area, dumb luck, etc. if you've had a great couple years and then it bombs I'd like to hear why you think that happened; drought or flooding, family tragedy that took time away, sudden infestation of locusts or deer, etc. it would help identify problems or good management practices I might be able to apply personally or look out for. It is great for analysis.
