The Marigolds are Flowering!

Several marigolds have begun to flower! Not only do their vibrant oranges and reds add beauty to the incubator farm, they also act as a pest deterrent! We have planted marigolds around many of our plants, including the strawberries and the tomatoes. In addition to deterring pests from the crops, the marigolds have also helped foster an agroecosystem! From spiders to lady bugs, many beneficials have been seen throughout the marigold plants!
