TOMATO FIELDS

Simsbury, CT - I have been noticing a lot of vegetable fields being planted in Connecticut. This field has to be at least 20 acres.


Notice that the plants are planted into black plastic, this keeps the weeds at bay.


A close-up of the plants.


Notice the hoses going under the plastic, this keeps the plants watered and the plastic keeps the water from evaporating.
