Yes, I know it’s supposed to be “April Showers” but we seem to be having lots of showers in May. Spring veggies are loving it. We’ve had plenty of succulent lettuces. We are now harvesting pak choi, kale, portugese kale, and chard. Next week we’ll add kohlrabi to the list. Peas […]

I expect to be able to make our first produce delivery of the season on Wednesday, April 21. It’s looking like the first delivery will be lettuce and young salad greens, along with green garlic and maybe green onions. And lots of eggs. The garden is growing well so far. Actually […]

Spring is a busy, exciting time on the farm. Young lambs are bounding around the way only lambs can. Although the sheep are still being given hay, they are nibbling on the newly appeared tiny green blades of grass. The chickens have kept laying in a phenomenal manner all winter and are […]

We’ve had some frosty nights and of course the summer veggies are gone, but we’re still enjoying frost tolerant fall veggies: kale, radishes, chinese cabbage, broccoli raab, lettuce, green onions. The pullets from this year’s hatches are beginning to lay, especially the heavy breeds: orpington and delaware, and just today the lighter minorcas. […]

For this week’s produce we have:
Beans: green, yellow, and purple.
Tomatoes: low acid yellow; yellow that’s not low acid; red; the colorful black pineapple; a new colorful Japanese black trifele; red, yellow, and orange salad tomatoes; the tiny sweet white currant; and various grape and cherry tomatoes. You can specify a specific variety or […]

We continue to have pretty much the same veggies this week.
Tomatoes: mostly yellows with a few reds. There is a new variety coming in, ananas noir, a large multicolored tomato with a green interior and bright red flashes throughout. It looks beautiful sliced or wedged and actually tastes mild for a green-fleshed […]

The veggies are continuing to ripen so we have much the same to offer as last week.
Tomatoes: mostly yellows with a few reds.
Green beans: the large, flat, yellow Italian beans: purple beans; and probably some green Italian type beans which I think are going to be smaller than the yellow ones.
Garlic.
Dill.
Kale: I […]

At last we have more veggies to offer!
We have green beans. Well, they aren’t really green. One variety is a large, broad, flat, tender romano (or Italian) type. I am posting some recipe ideas. The other is a purple pod “green” bean. The purple color will disappear to a dark […]

With all the rain the garden is growing well…and so are the weeds! Even so we have limited offerings until the tomatoes and blackberries are ripe. If you aren’t interested in what we have this week, feel free to skip. More plentiful days are coming.
We do have a summer salad mix, […]

The weather is forecasted to warm considerably the end of this week so I plan to do the last harvest of lettuce. If you want lettuce will receive a variety of kinds.
We have some nice young (not baby) Asian greens for sauté or stir fry. If you aren’t familiar with the varieties you […]
