New this week, spinach and baby radishes!
Frost hit hard this past week. We covered our peppers and beans, so they made it through. But our field tomatoes are now finished. It's dry again in the fields, so we started irrigating our cauliflower, hoping they will start to form heads in time for thanksgiving.
Our butternut and delicata squash plants were frosted dead also, so we are now in the middle of harvesting them and parking the wagon in the sunny greenhouse so they can ripen off.
I have to say this was definitely one of the shortest seasons I have farmed in, frost beginning of June and now frost barely 3rd week of September. Usually its frost May long and Thanksgiving weekend, which gives us an extra 4 weeks to get things going. Mother nature truly is my boss!
