Farm Happenings for July 16, 2020

While the Mexican Sour Gherkin Cucumber AKA "Cuc Nuts" or "Cucamelons" is fun to grow and a good seller for us, they do not like the heat/rain mixture! The picture of them I added is our last planting until it cools off some, how many can you see in the picture? When the plants are in their prime the fruit is everywhere and easy to pick since we trellis them, but when they are on the way out it becomes a hide and seek game almost! I see four in this picture that are ready to pick!!! We are doing all we can to make it through this heat and still provide quality fruits and veggies to you. Stay safe and hydrated!
