Farm Updates:
As expected the heat did return this week, and watering the small and emerging crops has been hitting top of the to do list. In more exciting news though, so will be starting to pull all of the ripe winter squash from the field!
This is another crop we sort of do all at one time over the course of a couple of weeks and the crop can then be stored. Some of these varieties can last quite a long time in a cool dry place. We will have several varieties and they will ripen at different stages so we will have few selections up for grabs starting this week like pie pumpkins and blue hubbards.
Seeing our bench grasp onto summer for as long as possible with the crops that do remain. We expect our beloved larger tomatoes to fade out next week or so, but those cherries seem to have some more time left.
Eggplant has done a nice job hanging on as we have gently harvested them along for a couple weeks and should hopefully have a couple more. While our sweet peppers will slowly start to decline in numbers they should still be around for a bit longer.
As each week passes we will spend less time in those summer fields and more time with greens and roots that are ready from our Fall plantings.
Nine week remain, please remember you can only use up 2 share credits per week as we wind down into the final weeks.
