Welcome to Week 9! Lots happening on the farm these days, with increasingly heavy harvests. This current heatwave will be bringing on lots of tomatoes, along with the first peppers and eggplants (probably available in quantity next week.) In addition to harvesting veggies, we are wrapping up sowing most of the winter veggies and will begin flipping greenhouses to make sure we have lots of food for the late fall and winter.
We also have been harvesting our indigo crop, which we use to dye the fiber from our sheep. It is really fun to extract the blue pigment and use it for dyeing in the winter. Alyssa, our flower farmer, is also reaching peak season for blooms and we hope everyone has been enjoying the bouquets.
