Farm Updates
The rain has been such a treat, and so far, very timely. The plants are looking fantastic and clearly appreciating it. While we would certainly love to get back into the field to transplant our last summer crops and begin direct seeding again, we will need to pause and let the fields dry. Sometimes it is a blessing to be forced to slow down, as it gives us the chance to focus on other tasks, such as weeding. While it can be tedious, it always pays off to keep the crops ahead and thriving. Preventing troublesome weeds from maturing and producing seeds is crucial for the long-term management of the fields.
Over the next couple of weeks, we will be moving through our spring crops as we eagerly approach summer. We will soon begin to see warm-season crops appear in the shares, with high tunnel cucumbers and summer squash from the fields expected as early as next week.
Friendly reminders:
Please remember to bring your own bags or boxes to pick-up to help reduce waste
Also, for the safety of our livestock and the integrity of our food, no dogs are allowed at pick-ups. Thank you for understanding and helping us keep the farm and food safe for everyone.
13 week shareholders can visit us any of the 26 weeks of harvest to use share credits. No need to notify us if you are coming.
