Farm Happenings for June 24, 2021

Posted on June 22nd, 2021 by Nicole Prins

Crop Failure alert! Our strawberries are not looking great. They've been attacked by a few critters this year, including the gypsy moth. Our strawberries are sprayed with absolutely nothing, and this record dry May did not help the strawberries along as well. Being a small diversified organic farm, we will try and pick as much as we can and then move on to other crops. Like tomatoes! I think its going to be an epic tomato year!

So after we harvest the strawberries Wednesday afternoon, I will go back into Harvie and refresh our inventory so you are able to swap strawberries into your boxes! My hopes are not high for this harvest, but we're going to see. On a positive note, the strawberry roots planted for next year harvest look amazing!
