Farm Happenings for April 23, 2021

Posted on April 18th, 2021 by Michael Hoke

We will now be offering weekly delivery for farmstand orders! We want to make sure that everyone is able to get their Common Ground vegetables each week and we believe this is the best way to do that.

Early signs of spring are popping up all around the farm. Chives, green onions, thyme, spring kale and red Russian kale are all reminding us that the seasons are changing. Pea shoots, that we had planted as cover crop, will also be harvested this week. We love using them in salads! Our greenhouse is now producing cucumbers! Their crunch and refreshing flavour were well worth the wait. Cherry tomatoes, beefsteak tomatoes, peppers and eggplants and still taking their time in the greenhouse, but the greenhouse basil and rosemary are abundant!

From Pfennings, we have red peppers, broccoli, celery, mini bella mushrooms, bananas and mandarin oranges!

Thank you for all of your support,

Sarah
