Thanks for interesting photos/story. I’m curious as to why the soil at the farm is naked. I feel pained at seeing naked soil as I think soil health is damaged and also there’s that issue of water loss.

Some of the market beds not pictured are mulched. Mine were not merely because I originally learned to farm on the wet side of Oregon where mulch made slug habitat, and definitely didn't make any sense in the spring at least. At this place, I was realizing that I needed to reconsider mulch since it's a different region and slugs seemed absent. So yeah, good observation, and thank you!
