first frost of fall 2025

The temperature is dropping in my neck of the woods and last Thursday night we had our first significant frost on the ground.

I worked at the farm Thursday morning and we did some preparation in anticipation of the frost. I picked the last of the okra and we loaded up the boss's car with her cannas. By the time I worked on Sunday, the okra stems had been plowed down. 

We have had a pleasant October but Mother Nature and the calendar tell us it's time to get out the heavier coats and gloves and get ready for the cold.

  2. 38 here the other morning. We should be 2-4 weeks behind you in the change of seasons.

    1. Definitely cooling down now. My husband was hoping to make it to November 1 to turn the furnace on but didn't happen.
