Did you miss me?  Seems like the Christmas tree information sources are on hiatus – perhaps because they can’t get to their trees with all the snow.  But I was in a greenhouse with lots of cool grafted conifers this weekend.  Perhaps that inspired me.

Heard about superweeds?  No, they don’t wear capes and they aren’t good guys and maybe they don’t even exist – but herbicide resistant weeds do and sometimes we find them in Christmas tree plantations.

You can find useful information almost anywhere – Vimeo videos from Cornell’s Garden Based Learning program that might apply to you.  Using Tall Fescue and Know Thy Enemy:Understanding Ticks and Their Management.

Well, not IPM but perhaps useful – Agritourism 101 – Getting your farm ready for the public – at the Broome County CCE office.  Even though you may have had people come to cut trees for years, maybe there are some new ideas here!

Does anyone have a Twitter feed for their business?  I’m learning to Tweet!

Short but I bet more will be coming soon – like spring!
