Yesterday was a day of freak weather in this area, and at about 4 pm a huge rainstorm and gust of wind blew down our rows of beans, heavily laden and ready for picking.

Today, at our work day, that was the main focus, and so we all worked together, raising the poles, putting in stakes and ropes to hold them, putting back those plants that had been ripped out of the ground.

We had a huge harvest of beans from the plants that had been damaged.
