Hello wonderful friends!
Bright and early on Wednesday morning with the help of our new (and one returning!) farmhands we brought it our first bountiful harvest! As the fog and dew evaporated into the afternoon we bunched greens, onions, and radishes and harvested wonderful heads of lettuce. It has been a beautiful week to farm, warm sun and moist mornings. Our workers (and our plants!) are absolutely loving it!
Both Matt and I cannot wait to keep bringing you the freshest and most delicious vegetables we can, with the help of our sturdy farm hands and your amazing volunteer efforts this season should turn out to be a lot of fun and full of a lot of food! The wildlife is with us as we work the soil, we hear the calls of the Killdeer, we see the swooping formations of Swallows catching their morning insect breakfast, and have even watched as massive Herons glided over us. We all cannot wait to get to know you better as you come visit us during out distributions. Many of you were very kind and helpful by bringing used plastic bags and it would be amazing if you could continue this tradition for the benefit of all.
We all have a lot to look forward to, broccoli and strawberries are on their way, the corn continues to grow, and the rows of vegetables are looking well weeded and ready for action. Thank you so much for being a part of this growing season!
