Hello! The list of greens is dwindling as the weather gets hotter, but we still have some good ones, and we’re starting to see more summer crops. The tomatoes are not quite ready, but we have a lot more summer squash, the cucumbers are starting to produce, and we are about to dig all of … Read more…

Hey all! Arugula is back on the list this week! It’s not pretty: this time of year flea beetles are one of the worst pests, and they put lots of tiny holes in the leaves. Don’t let that scare you off though, as other than the (far) less than perfect aesthetics, and maybe a few … Read more…

Hello! New on the list this week: Napa, green & red cabbage, cauliflower, and broccoli. The arugula, asian greens, and first round of radishes are all done, but we were lucky to get more arugula seeded before all of this rainy weather, and so we should have more tender arugula in another week or so. … Read more…

Hello! New on the list this week: garlic scapes, sugarsnap peas, daikon radishes, and fennel! We have two successions of sugarsnaps in the field right now, and the first one is just starting to put on a lot of peas, so hopefully we’ll have them for a good while. The favas just started producing a … Read more…

Hello! There are more strawberries this week, and enough blossoms on the plants that I’m hoping we’ll get at least one more week out of them. With the cooler weather forecast for most of the week, they should continue to put on blossoms, and as long as we don’t get too much rain we should … Read more…

Hi there! The strawberries continue to ripen, and they are the best flavor yet this week after such sunny, warm weather. New on the list this week is some new lettuces, red radishes, green onions, beets, and cilantro. The kohlrabi will be ready next week, and soon we should have salad turnips and sugar snap … Read more…

Hello! The strawberries are getting sweeter as the field dries out and the days heat up. We have a lot of strawberries this week! And more and more crops are ready for harvest including new herbs, radishes, and greens. The beets are nearly ready, the sugar snap peas are looking really good, and pretty soon … Read more…

We’re back!!! Though we had some really nice warm weather at the beginning of February, this winter has kept coming back with more cold weather, and I think we had the last frost only at the end of this last week. Plants have been waiting for the soil to warm up to really start growing, … Read more…

Hello! There are some new lettuce and beet options this week, and also potentially broccoli. The broccoli has been really slow to mature this fall. We’re not sure why, but it looks like after tonight it should be warm for the rest of the week, so hopefully it still has plenty of time to mature. … Read more…

Hello! New on the list is green cabbage and cauliflower! The Cauliflower is just coming in, and unfortunately the broccoli is taking longer than ever. Hopefully it will be ready in time for next week. We got lucky with avoiding a real frost this past week, and still have eggplant and okra on the list. … Read more…
