A note from Chris It was another naked leg day last week. Two days of hot and muggy weather caused me to have to work in shorts again. Ugh! I hate working in shorts. The good news is the corn loves naked leg days, as it loves the heat. The corn put on another foot […]
A note from Chris The garden is still struggling to catch up. This year we planted twice as much as the year before anticipating selling at the farmers' market, as well as the usual CSA. We have since canceled our farmers' market booth since the garden is producing half of what it produced last year. […]
A note from Chris This week we’ve included a few plums from our plum trees. We planted them 3 years ago, and this is the first year they have produced enough fruit to share. The fruit is still small but tasty. The tomatoes are starting to produce. This week’s box has a few tomatoes in […]
A note from Chris Dang, it’s hot! This past week was so hot! It was so hot I had to work in shorts. I hate working in shorts! I need some protection between me and the farm. There are too many things on the farm that don’t get along well with naked legs. I’ve […]
Pals, it has been warm. 🥵️ The garden loves it but the farmers and animals, not so much. Good news is I got Chris to take a break today for almost a half an hour! I hope you are staying cool in town!
A garden update from Chris. The days are now officially getting shorter, by about 2 minutes per day. That means fall is coming and that means a lot of the plants will start to go into seed production mode. Which is good for crops that we harvest for seed and fruit like beans and melons […]
A garden update from Chris. Well, it’s still trying to be summer here on the farm. This week looks promising weather wise. Let’s hope for warm and dry. Squash is on its way. There are so many flowers and baby squash on the vines. One of the things I’ve noticed this year is the lack […]
Wow, those were some hot days! What a shift. Going from 55°F to the 90s. It was a bit tough on all the heartbeats here, but the plants liked it. Except the cool weather crops. 🤦♀️
First days of summer and the weather is warming up! Looks like a few cool days are still in the forecast then some hot, hot heat. We are hoping the hot won't be too much for the plants, and we won't lose all the lettuce like last year's heat wave. But the tomatoes and peppers […]
