You produce farmers are certainly in the minority when it comes to having 
something growing/harvesting/planting all the time! The rest of us are kind 
of like horses in a derby,  waiting for planting or harvesting time and then 
going as fast as we can for a week or two and then coming to a sudden stop. 
I know folks that raise a few cows just to have something to do in the 
off-season. I guess it's all what you are used to, but I'd hate to be in 
your shoes dealing with perishable crops.

I read this post and laughed about the finishing up the farm work for the
year. We pick, pack and sell produce every single week of the year here in
coastal central California, and normally plant 47 plus weeks of the year -
heading for 52 this coning year. Also, the only four day workweeks for my
farm labor this year are as usual Thanksgiving and Christmas weeks. I will
actually not work on next Wednesday - Christmas Day!

Still here, impatiently waiting on some warm and dry weather so I can
hopefully finish up farm work for the year, maybe tomorrow.
