Frosts.

This week the temperatures dropped and the hard frosts arrived in earnest.  Temperatures have remained at or below freezing during the day, and the ground underfoot feels like concrete.  Most of the crops on the farm are protected from these conditions, thanks to our efforts.  But those with leaves above ground don't so much mind it: strawberry plants, kale, cress, leeks.  Here are some photos of frosty leaves snapped this week.
