Updates from the Farm
Well, we know we are not the only ones who are tired of this humidity. This past week was another rough one, but we are hanging in there because we know fall is right around the corner! Did we mention that to be successful in farming, you really need to have a "glass half full" attitude...pretty much always. We have also been getting some much needed rain, but now it needs to stop. :-) The difficulties right now are endless - we have some standing water in the fields, and that means drowning crops. We have tomatoes splitting from too much water, and it seems like a constant race to get crops out of the field before the next downpour. The humidity also makes it very difficult to dry our tea herbs, onions, and flowers, meaning crop loss. We see high temps with less chance of rain for the coming week so hopefully, that will hold true.
Up this week, more racing around harvesting and more seeding of fall crops. Typical August on the farm. We hope to have the salad mix and head lettuce available again within 2 weeks!
Have a great week everyone, and thank you again for being a farm share member this season!!
