Week 14

What's up with the Photo? In the picture on the left I was seeding a "cover crop" on June 18th. In the picture on the right is the same field on July 18. On August 4th, the field of cover crop was 6-7 feet tall. We raise these cover crops to build healthier soil for our vegetable fields. Healthier soil promotes healthier plants that provides you with produce that is very nutrient rich. Here's a video of me out in this field.

As always, thank you for your kind emails. I was especially thankful to our farm share members that offered their supportive words and kindess to Hugo's wife. I hope that by the time you receive this email Hugo's wife (Monse) will be at home recovering. 

Sincerely,

Ford
