The season is shifting and this is good news. We are on our way to enjoying the summer's bounty. Today I picked some zucchinis. They look great so we will be enjoying these in our box this week. We ran the irrigation today and gave all of our plants a healthy drink of water. This will boost the growth in this heat. Peppers are growing like wildfire. They will be ready soon as well. So this week is looking good :).
This week's box:
Zucchinis
Cabbage
New Potatoes, they are excellent and perfect in size. They are considered gourmet in quality.
Miscellaneous Herbs
to be continued.. I hope you all had a wonderful Fourth of July.

Update On The Farm!!
We opened up for business on Sunday and that went great. We are now open Tues-Sun. Closed Monday. Right now you can buy local honey and our jams. PLEASE DO. It helps us when we have no produce to sell. Now to the good stuff. The weather, has cleared finally and we have been extremely busy. All the potatoes, onions, kohlrabi, and cabbage are in the ground growing— ooh yeah Brussels. We are busy planting all day and will be for the next few days. We have at least three acres of produce growing already. It is pretty intense this time of year, and I love it. Watching life happen before your eyes is amazing, I can't even describe the feeling it is so rewarding.
We planted all of the cold crops on the back side of the farm, opposite from last year. So far, planting has been a success with no major hick-ups. Our potato planter did not arrive in time this year, so I had the honor of planting potatoes & onions through my neighbor's modified 1900's planter. Modified, of course, to be pulled by a tractor not a horse. I have pictures that will come soon. I started all of the cabbage inside my house in February, with shop-lights. Later I moved the plants to the green house. The plants turned out beautifully.
