Farm Happenings for April 30, 2021

Posted on April 25th, 2021 by Michael Hoke

Things are looking green around here! We're now harvesting hundreds of cucumbers out of our greenhouse. We've even harvested a few eggplant, and some of the cherry tomatoes are bright red! The peppers are still taking their time to grow and ripen into sweet, crunchy fruit. There's always lots of trellising and pruning work to be done with our summer fruits, so we are trying to stay on top of it all. We've just planted another succession of cherry tomatoes into one of our hoophouses and we can't wait to be swimming in them sometime soon. This week, we're harvesting our first beet bunches of the year. They're bound to be fresh and tasty! We hope to get all of our onions transplanted this week, as well as some lettuce, chard and endive.

From Pfenning's this week, we'll have broccoli, cauliflower, bananas, celery, Roma tomatoes, red peppers, and aged gouda.

Thank you for your continued support,

Sarah
