Making Choices

Farming is a series of choices. You have to make a plan based on past experience and a somewhat likely future. Because it is seldom hot in the beginning of May, we cover the eggplant to speed it along. We also cover it to keep the bugs off. Of course, there are pros and cons to every choice. The cover also keeps insects, like aphids, in, and, just like its cultivated host, (almost) perfectly protected. So, when I see that some of the eggplants are under attack, we opt to remove the row cover early and to expose the eggplant ... by Marilee Foster

How Hot Is Too Hot? New York State Says, for Schools, 88 Degrees

Soaring temperatures recently sent students home early from school during a heat wave in the Hudson Valley and across New York State in the wake of a new law requiring that children be removed if the classroom reaches a maximum of 88 degrees Fahrenheit. East End students had no such luck — and, in most cases, likely never will. At the East Hampton Union Free School District, all of the classrooms and buildings have air conditioning, reported Superintendent of Schools Adam Fine. Jeff Nichols, superintendent of schools for the Sag Harbor Union Free School District, said the heat caused the ... by Michelle Trauring

Ferry Us

Why don’t we have “inter”-village ferries, similar to the Amalfi Coast, that run along our bays and can port at each village? Imagine the reduction of summer traffic if you could ride in a great ferry from Southampton or Sag Harbor all the way to Montauk, making stops in each village? Or having a dedicated line per stop, like our Fire Island neighbor? Hmmmmm. Carol Scott Sag Harbor by Staff Writer

A Warning

The June 24 Southampton Village Board of Trustees meeting was brief but telling [“Southampton Village Will Start Two-Week Pilot Program Closing Off Ox Pasture East of Halsey Neck,” 27east.com, June 25]. First, Mayor Bill Manger got caught hiding the payment to a Washington, D.C.-based ethics attorney hired to produce a favorable opinion related to Trustee Robin Brown’s ethics violation just weeks before the election. Manger refused to pass a resolution authorizing the engagement and cut off any attempt to bring transparency to the issue. Robin Brown then doubled down on her claim that she was “exonerated,” but the issue at ... by Staff Writer
