It started to rain pretty good at the Canandaigua Market today, and I think every one of us farmers under that roof was whooping it up in celebration. The clouds looked like they were heading south toward my house and when I got home, sure enough, there had been rain. YES! It was definitely less than I was hoping for (only got a quarter inch), but at this point I’ll take anything in the line of rain. It might be enough to make my 4th batch of flowers pop at least (I’m currently cutting batch one, and batch 2 and 3 are stunted from the draught). The poor flowers have had a heck of a time of it this year, between frost and hail, and now draught. It’s amazing there are any out there at all. Hopefully this rain will help some grow, a few of the fields are starting to look like pretty crispy critters.
