A tornado crashed through the Prairie Farm area on Sunday, May 25, my birthday in fact. Good reason not to take things personally. The storm broke trees and at the farm, twisted and ruined one of the hoop houses. The hoop house had just been moved to the new location. Members had just planted the new tomatoes in the ground. In no time flat, the hoop house was destroyed. Neighboring farms lost sheds and barns. No one is hurt, the rest is just stuff.
On Tuesday morning 10 neighboring farmers showed up and in only 2 hours the damaged hoop house was removed from the other hoop house and disassembled. A new hoop house has been ordered and order will be restored to the farm. The tomatoes that had been planted have been moved back to the green house and will have to wait about 10 days to get back into their new home.
