Farm Happenings for September 9, 2020

Posted on September 4th, 2020
We've pulled up the onions from a fog of late season weeds and are pleased to find some sturdy bulbs and a good number of them, too. We've left them on the ground to cure for a few days and will move them into the pole bard to join the garlic brought in last month. A good crop of onions is reassuri1 read more »

We are at the height of the summer harvest, the Glorious Season, as Kim once termed it.  We hope the harvest has enriched your summer time gatherings and tickled your palates.  The mornings have grown cool and the daylight arrives and departs sooner, a seeming contradiction to the bounty1 read more »

Tomatoes seem the very spirit of the high summer harvest. We eat them at every meal, and often in between (Mike will put down a couple pint of cherry toms as he makes his delivery runs.)

Our pole beans, both the green Blue Lake types and the green and yellow Romanos, began producing last week and we are expecting a substantial harvest from them this coming week, especially after they get a push from the current heat wave. So, many of you who've indicated a fondness for beans will b1 read more »

We pick our first slicing tomatoes for you this week and also the first pole beans of the year. Artichokes are on this week's list as well. These edible thistles are a crop we don't often grow, but some mysterious horticultural whimsy made us do some this year. We have been busy preparing ground fo1 read more »

Hi, Friends: The farm is a lush and fecund piece of earth right now.  We have many crops ready to harvest, with several drawing near.  It's a challenge each week to decide which items to offer to you, wanting to keep things varied while at the same time making good use of the production w1 read more »

We dug our garlic crop last week,  3.5 beds and about 4000 bulbs which we'll meter out to our members over the next many weeks. There was a time on this farm when the digging of the garlic signaled the end of the busy time and the beginning of a slower, more measured period of farm work. Not s1 read more »

Hi, Friends: We had a good week with full harvests of many crops: broccoli, cauliflower, garlic, and broccoli Raab, to name a few.  This photo of Angela and Debbie attests to the productivity of the farm, but also to the good heart and great energy of our crew.  We are running our weeding1 read more »

Slowly Summer Comes

Posted on July 11th, 2020
The garden is lush with many crops filling out, but several not quite ready for prime time.  Our first crop of bush beans isn't quite there, but the Basil has filled out enough to offer some to you.  We will dig the first carrots of the season, sweet but on the petite side.  Cabbage1 read more »
