Farm Happenings at Meadowlark Community Farm
Summer Share: Week 9
It is hard to believe that August is right around the corner! If we need convinced that August is almost here, we just need to take a walk around the farm. The garlic is harvested and curing in the greenhouse. We will be harvesting sweet corn and watermelons for week 10's shares. Some of our early1 read more »
Summer Share: Week 8
This week brings many new crops - new potatoes, summer carrots, cabbage, torpedo onions, celery. We are picking the first of the cherry tomatoes, and we hope to have some in week 8's shares. We dug the first bed of summer carrots this week. They are sweet, petite, and tender. Next week, we'll be di1 read more »
Summer Share: Week 7
The farm looks (and feels) pretty summer-y these days. The tasseling sweet corn and tomato plants full of green fruit enjoyed the heat wave. We are thankful for a break from the 90 degree weather. On Thursday, the farm received almost 3 inches of rain. More than we needed! There was no immediate da1 read more »
Summer Share: Week 6
Good morning, and happy 4th of July!
We have had another full, sweaty week. The second succession of carrots enjoyed a thorough hand weeding, and Craig spent some time cultivating and cleaning up the fields. Sweet corn is way past knee high and beginning to tassel. Planting continues, with mo1 read more »

It is hard to believe that we are nearing the end of June, and that this is the 5th week of summer CSA deliveries.

Summer Share: Week 3
Good morning!
We've been enjoying beautiful skies during our field work this week. When we weren't rained out from the tropical storm, our focus was on weeding and setting up trellising. We will be mulching our tomatoes this week, trellising peas, and planting our fall brassicas. Harvest is b1 read more »
Summer Share: Week 2
Happy Saturday!
This week's offerings are another mix of crops from the field, our hoophouse, and the greenhouse. The carrots were planted back in the beginning of March in our hoophouse. They are so sweet and flavorful - and no longer "baby" carrots. This week's spinach variety is best cooked.&nbs1 read more »
Summer Share: Week 1
Hello, Summer CSA Members!
We are excited to be entering the summer CSA season. Field crops have enjoyed the rain and are looking forward to warm, sunny days ahead. We are thankful for the bounty of our hoophouse - spinach, kohlrabi, carrots, salad turnips, chard/beet greens, and kale. The green ga1 read more »
