Farm Happenings for April 29, 2023

Posted on April 26th, 2023 by Mark Kastner
As we continue to "pot up" the Tomato, Pepper, Cucumber and others, I will shift to the future outdoor fruiting crops like Summer and Winter Squash, Melons, and Leafy Greens. It's almost like a second Spring!
 
I continue to prep the indoor beds for summer production, and today will transplant the outside edges of those beds with  Beets, Baby  Lettuce and  Radishes for added bounty to the future Tomatoes and Peppers. Also indoors, we will add Celery Zucchini, and Swiss Chard for earlier harvests and  continuous yields.
 
This week I am at the Family Fare parking lot in Eaton Rapids on Wednesday at 12:00 noon and the Allen Street indoor Farmers Market after that, 3:00-6:00. I'll be delivering in  our white cargo van. Thursday is farm pick up and scheduled home deliveries. Saturday I am in the parking lot behind  Flour Child Bakery in Grand Ledge, 11:00-12:00 noon. The first outdoor Farmers Market on River Street in Grand Ledge is May 20!
