Farmer Rachel smiling the day away in the green bean field. Assassin Bug – this is a friend of the garden, but one that should be approached with caution since they can pack a mean punch if threatened. Read more about these friends of the farm, here. Tomato Horn Worm + Parasitic Wasp Eggs this is a great example of how nature can heal itself without the need for inputs – pictured is a tomato horn worm (that can decimate a tomato crop in a hurry!) and parasitic wasp eggs. You can read more about this friend and foe, here. Volunteer, Karen B., sharing her knowledge about egg washing with kids from Camp Willowsford.
