Embracing the New Season with Fresh Beginnings!
As we wave goodbye to this chilly January, our fields are bursting with life, welcoming an exhilarating start to the 2024 season! This January we set a record number of sales! IN JANUARY! This Tuesday marks a big milestone as we plant our first seeds of the 2024, sowing the foundations of a bountiful Spring harvest. Our efforts over the weekend have prepared two field blocks, ready to nurture transplants of sugar snap peas and an array of salad greens. With lettuce and spinach seeds being sown on Tuesday as well, we're fully embracing this opportune break in the weather. It's going to be warming up fast! We are getting an early start with tomatoes, green beans, and squash--everyone's favorite!
February's Transplants
Looking ahead, February 1st is set to be a landmark day, with thousands of transplants like cabbage, broccoli, cauliflower, radicchio, and bok choy destined for the soil. We're especially thrilled about introducing some vibrant new cultivars, rich in purple hues, promising a rainbow of nutritious delights. Our fingers are crossed for our current cauliflower and broccoli crops to mature swiftly!
This Week's Select Harvests
This week, our fields offer a select harvest of beets, mini Napa cabbages, scallions, and collard greens. With limited availability, these crops will be featured as exclusive add-ons or swaps. Stay tuned for the return of oyster mushrooms next week!
