Old St. Joseph had a farm,
Ee i ee i oh!
And on that farm he had Dan Bair,
Ee i ee i oh!
With a seed-seed here,
And a plant-plant there
Here a seed, there a plant,
Everywhere a seed-plant
Old St. Joseph had a farm
Ee i ee i oh!
Old St. Joseph had a farm,
Ee i ee i oh!
And on that farm he had an intern,
Ee i ee i oh!
With a mulch-mulch here,
And a work-work there
Here a sweat, there a sweat,
Everywhere a sweat-sweat
Old St. Joseph had a farm
Ee i ee i oh!
Between hunting hornworms and harvesting all of the ripe tomatoes, I was in hoophouse # 2 for 5 hours today. Can you tell from my song? It’s a tomato jungle in there!
Remember that we have a Farmers Market from 11a-2p on Wednesday by Joe’s Java. Please come take these tomatoes so my effort was not in vain!
