Ian Jerolmack of Stonecipher Farm in Bowdoinham adjusts an irrigation hose inside one of his no-till greenhouses on Friday where he's growing peas, carrots, peppers and eggplant. The no-till method involves building up rows of compost that sit atop the ground. Some compost suppliers are running out of material due to a dramatic, pandemic-induced uptick in home gardening. (BDN)
