Complimentary Blueberry Juice

Illuminating agriculture with an ecological light.


Lettuce Protector

One of the things I love most about our no-till permanent beds is the abundance of life that is embedded in the field. While harvesting lettuce this week, baby Gray Treefrogs were jumping from Romaine to Romaine. I was lucky enough to get a really amazing photo at about 7:30AM.

These little Lettuce Protectors and many other frogs are all over the place now, having emerged as tadpoles. I have no idea what these frogs are eating, but they have a lot of choices (if they are choosy).

There are so many things living in this field and a wide majority of these things are not harmful. The encouragement of more life should be the goal of all agricultural systems.

And we can get some great photos while we’re at it!
