 Harvesting cats. Actually, as you know, it was a rainy Saturday so we spent the day in the hoophouses and greenhouse pruning and trellising tomatoes and cucumbers and Dorian didn't mind hanging out with us.
 Juicy Colorado potato beetle larvae eating potato leaves. These are usually a minor pest on our farm that do not do too much damage to our potatoes.
