Farm Happenings for January 14, 2023

Posted on January 10th, 2023 by Jesse Tysinger

Hello! Second week! Whoo! 

Last week's box was a whirlwind, and lots and lots of fun! Thank you all for joining us in the community of growing and sharing, we quite literally couldn't do it without you.

The whole farm team and I are gearing up for even more bed space this week. That means building beds and our favorite farm member (sorry Odin...) SOIL! We added hay to beds we are cover cropping to add carbon and protect soil moisture. We can't wait to be planting in those beds soon, but we have to feed our soils before we can feed ourselves. Apprentice Allie loosened the ground in our greenhouse and got to planting peas, cucumbers, lettuce, and more. Those will make their way to your boxes before you know it, so remember to say "Thanks Apprentice Allie!" Next time you have a sugar snap pea. 

We are gearing up for a big year over here and are so glad you're joining us along the way. Stay tuned for more about what R2R is up to and maybe some haikus on soil. I really love the stuff!

 

Good growth,

Jesse
