Farm Happenings for September 5, 2023

Posted on September 1st, 2023 by John Zilnicki

September is here, back to school is here and I can't believe it!  Our little girl starts kindergarten this year and that is blowing our mind!  Time truly does fly.   

Farm Happenings: Our early potatoes have taken a serious hit from the late July, early August rains.  We are experiencing serious loss of yields that are truly heart breaking.  The thing I can't justify is, I don't think the rains, humidity's, and heat were that bad, compared to past years.   The only thing we can do is pray the issues are only in the early varieties and not in the late storage varieties.  

On a happier note, you guys are amazing!  We can not believe the response to our end of summer barn party for our members.  You guys blew me away.  We are excited for Sept 20th and it will be here soon enough.  We may be experiencing a tough potato harvest but your commitment to us, keep us going every day! So thank you!

Have a great holiday weekend!

Your farmer, 

John

PS...Good luck to all the kids, moms, and dads this first week of school!
