LAST PICKUP IN CSA SUMMER SEASON: Sept 30/Oct 1

UPDATE YOUR AUTO RENEW STATUS FOR NEXT SEASON: Login to your account and you’ll see AutoRenewal Settings on your Dashboard. Or ask me to set it for you. We have already started planning for next year! Farming is a year-round project.

FARM CARDS FOR SALE: Best to buy our greeting cards on Harvie Extras, but I'll have them on the table in the Veggie Shed as well this week. Six different cards per pack for $15. 

THE GREAT FARM CLEAN-UP

As the panic of the summer season recedes...It is time for clean-up on the farm...that includes digging the last white potatoes and Sweet Potatoes....Look for emails with detail when you can come help pick Potatoes! 

U-PICK

Flowers are going strong. Enjoy the zinnias and pink cockscomb right after the zinnias.

The Bean Hut continues to provide! It seems to have had a prolific week. The best way to get beans to produce another round is to pick them thoroughly, which you have done. Keep it up, there are lots to pick now. 

Candy Lane--the cherry tomatoes keep splitting and falling due to the rain. Enjoy the ones that hang on the vine. Picking a little underripe and letting them ripen on your counter might work best for this week. There might just not be many at all though. Check. 

Kiwi Fruit--pick some kiwi berries from the arbor over the Veggie Shed. The squishy wrinkly ones are ready and sweet as can be. You can take a handful of firm ones home and see if they ripen on your counter, if you like.
