First Harvest: Arugula, Cucumber, Summer Squash, Beets. Lettuce and Radish return.
We had a brief pause in planting and weeding at the end of the week to work on project like building a seeding station for the fall crops, pouring concrete, and painting a room in the pack barn. But the intense summer picking is just getting started now that the cucumbers and summer squash are ready to pick.
