Today started
with a fresh westerly wind which got stronger as the morning progressed, all of
the nets were closed at 10am as the wind picked up. A very intense thunderstorm
hit us in the late afternoon and the rain lasted a little over an hour before
relenting, leaving quite a lot of standing water. In other news we harvested
the first produce from the obs veg patch, which is loving the rain at the
moment!
