July 30th Happening

Posted on July 30th, 2021 by Melinda Hollyfield

It's comin' in hot hot hot, y'all. Our heat loving plants are happy and thriving - which is great news if you love tomatoes. Interestingly, our lettuce is still booming thanks to the help of shade cloth. Usually the lettuce would be scorched in this heat, so we hope you enjoy these late summer salads! You can also expect cucumbers, basil, leeks, potaotos and more in your veggie box this week. Our team is working hard in the gardens to keep the weeds under control and we are beginning to plant seeds for our fall crops. What do you want to eat this winter? Let us know!
