LAST SPRING SHARE AND UPDATE ON THE FARM

This Wednesday, June 25th is the last Spring Share for the 2014 season–Wow, that was a fast 8 weeks!  Hoop house is looking pretty empty–Pick Up is 4:30 to 5:30 at the Museum Parking LotGourmet Salad Mix, Salanova, and Bok Choi for all, Carrots and Kohlrabi for the Full Spectrum.  

Update on The Farm–things are still growing…including the weeds we keep hoeing out and pulling…what more can I say?  This week we hope to begin the construction on the delivery/processing shelter and fighting with the flea beetles and Lygus bug.  The potatoes are blooming and for the first time in my entire life I have seen a purple cabbage flower–What kinda fluke is that?! 

We hope to begin harvest for the 2014 Summer Season the first full week in July–8th to the 12th.  First Farmer’s Market is July 12th, 8:00 to 11:30 at Pioneer Park.  Look for your letter from The Farmer’s Wife in the mail next week.   🙂
