Garlic: Can You Dig It?
We harvested about a third of the garlic so far and it was so much fun that we thought we should share the fun with all our members! So this Saturday, July 30th, when the weather will be comfortable and beautiful, we are planning to dig the rest of the garlic. If you would like […]
Help!
This season it has been especially difficult to find and retain good help. Though we’ve been blessed to have some returning employees, filling vacancies has been especially difficult. I guess this is one of the downsides of a robust economy. So we are looking for another person or three to help us through the rest […]
Heat
This will have to be a short newsletter. With the amount of work to do on the farm this time of year I was blessed to see a beautiful full moon rise as I was finishing up some tractor work last night (Is this a farmer humble brag?) So there was no time to write […]
As the Worm Turns
The farm is especially busy this time of year. As everyone knows, we are harvesting lots of delicious veggies. But we also have to manage the weeds, deal with the pests and fight plant diseases.

Let’s Get Ready to Rumble!
With the potential for rain this afternoon I don’t have a lot of time for chit-chat. So without further ado. The season starts Wednesday! Plan to pick-up at your usual place and time. We still have shares available so keep spreading the word! What will we have this very first week of the season? I’m […]

As I mentioned in the last newsletter this is a Wednesday. The first pick-up for Monday members is June 20th. If you are still confused contact me […]
