Welcome Summertime!




Summer is officially here and the gardens are growing everyday! Truly, plants will grow significantly from one day to the next. Where there was a bloom, the next day will be the fruit! It is so cool to be a part of such a vibrant atmosphere. It just shows what a lot of TLC and a healthy dose of sunshine and rain will do!
The spinach, kale, and lettuces are about gone for the season. There are still some carrots, beets, onions, and garlic to harvest, but the primary crops over the next weeks will be green beans, tomatoes, potatoes, squashes, and sunflowers. There are still herbs and sometime in July, we hope for sweet corn.

We are starting our first CSA (Community Supported Agriculture) group and we are thrilled to be offering 5 memberships for this first season. The season will run for 12 weeks from July to mid-September. If you are interested, please let us know and we will send you more information. It is a great way to support us and you receive a bucket of fresh picked harvest every week. It is a sweet deal!
