Update!! 6-2-2013

Well, looks like the rainy period is over.    After the last two years of drought, we are not complaining!!  Will work on getting the next sweet corn and the popcorn in by tomorrow night.  Onions and most potatoes are up, no CPB's yet!  Shallots are coming up, some specialty corn, first sweet corn, and should have some squash, pumpkins, melons, and  cucumbers breaking ground.  Pat has a lot pf the transplants in the ground, and they are starting to take off and go.  Still a lot of weeds to get under control, always something!!

Plan to make grass hay in about a week.  Will be nice to have some put away for next year, and some to sell!!  Need to get pasture program going as well.  The animals have been keeping well fed though as we keep cleaning up.

Plan today to plant pumpkins/squash, popcorn?, to wet to work ground.  Selling fresh harvested greens, spinach, and hope to add chard, kale, and scallions by mid-week.  Customers include CSA members and "River's Edge Market"!

Still have local  openings for CSA members.  First distribution mid June!!
