i've been wondering about pests, too. where do you live, what are you growing and how much land are you farming? we have a small plot in Cambridge, MA--at most 12 ft by 5ft. we've had a good run of (snap?) peas and kale. zucchini and tomatoes should be producing soon. watermelons never took hold and sprouts never produced radishes, but those were somewhat experimental plantings. pests have been eating our basil. right now we're seeing how much loss this turns into. we're not sure what the next step is, other than identifying the pests. we're an organic coop to begin with, so unless we can find friendly pesticides, i expect we'll get creative with nets or some other mechanisms. or grow other plants.
