A hot week for sure on the farm. We are currently sweating through planting this week's succession of salad mix and wrapping up this season's garlic harvest. We always enjoy walking by the garlic curing area for the couple of weeks directly following harvesting garlic and we find ourselves eating an unusual amount of Italian food during this time as well. There are several new crops available this week including leeks and rosemary, and just generally MORE of the crops that you've been waiting for. It also looks like a prime week for our gladiolus flowers to begin blooming, so brighten up your day with one of our glad bunches...I'm sorry, I hate to do this...but I just can't help it...you'll be very 'Glad' you did!
Be sure to get into your Harvie profile to customize your box for next week (or to purchase a one-time Farm Stand box), or don't! Some people love the surprise of finding out what they get when they pick up. This week, we have lots of great items from other local producers, including:
- Bread and Bagels from The Gracious Table
- Farm Fresh Eggs from the Miller Farm
- Honey from McLaury Apiaries
- Fresh Pressed Apple Cider AND Apple Butter, from Farm to Market Store, both of these products are made right here in Libby!
- Locally Raised breakfast sausage, hot Italian sausage, and pork chops from Double N Farms
- Beautiful gladiolus bouquets from yours truly!
Have a wonderful weekend!
