FM2 farmers take in Russell County High Tunnel Field Day High tunnels are popping up everywhere Click on headline for story with photo(s) By Barbara Armitage So what do farmer's do for fun? The farmer's from the Farmer's Market on the Square like to spend time at events like the High Tunnel Field Day at the Adams Farm in Russell Springs, KY, learning more about how they can extend their growing seasons in order to bring customers fresh fruits and vegetables longer. It's true that there's not much in this world more fun than picking tomatoes on a hot summer day but sometimes we do take a day away from the farm. High tunnels are popping up everywhere thanks mostly to the EQUIP High Tunnel Initiative through the NRCS office. Crops grown in ground in these tunnels, like these strawberries and raspberries, are protected from the elements and are typically ready for market weeks before and after crops grown conventionally. Results of high tunnel production can be seen at the Farmer's Market on the Square Saturdays, 424 Public Square, Columbia, KY 8am-1pmCT and Tuesdays 4:30pm-7:30pmCT.
