Granddaughters Zoe and Reyes Handziak helping with the onion harvest
This week's offerings: New this week are some new potatoes, and the first ears of sweet corn. The potatoes are not nearly finished growing, but it's fun to start the harvest a little early to get the new potatoes. We do harvest them with a machine, which damages the skin somewhat, but it's just too much work to dig them all by hand, so we have to suffer with some skin damage from the digger. (Later in September the skins should be more fully 'cured'.) Two kinds of beans this week: green beans, and the Dragon Tongue flat beans.
Coming soon: Cantaloupes (actually some this week as well!), and peppers.
Peaches will be available next week! Barn2Door link coming soon!
We are grateful for rain! Sure helps out a lot -- less time trying to irrigate, and crops grow much better!
Have a great week,
Peter & Bernadette & Crew
