Farm Happenings for for week of July 23, 2019

Posted on July 19th, 2019 by Jessica Foote

Well guys,

This is the short and sweet! Time crunch is everything, catch up after being away for a couple days makes it feel like I have been away for weeks! Man weeds grow so well, I wish sometimes they where the crop. If anybody wants to volunteer some weeding hours we are doing a group weeding of the corn this Sunday so hopefully it grows tall and healthy!

We will have some garlic bulbs from a friend that I did my apprenticeship with, it is certified organic by Ecocert, I am hoping ours will grow a little more before harvest.

The heat is taking its toll on plant, animal, and human alike! No more strawberries for shares they are turning to jam in the field. Some crops of greens are bolting, along with broccoli & and lettuce. That being said zucchini, cucumbers, and beets are doing great! Cabbages, and little cauliflower are ready for the upcoming baskets. Keep in mind our cauliflower is never pure white! Beans will be joining us as well! We have many kinds green, yellow, & dragon tongue! The dragon tongue beans are a larger flatter variety that have amazing flavor. So it will be a pleasant surprise no matter what variety is ready.

Cheers, Jessica Foote
