Hi everyone,
Thanks to all the people who showed up on Saturday for the work day. Members pulled up old tomato plants and plastic mulch, they also took down the deer fencing, and put away irrigation and tomato stakes. All this rain we’ve had is causing mildew to grow in the salad mix. There will definitely be salad mix in the shares this week, although I’m not sure if I’ll be able to get a second harvest out of it for next week. Fortunately, the temperatures have been warm enough that the eggplant and peppers are still alive. I plan on harvesting everything off those plants this week in anticipation of a possible frost. If anyone would like to do some work hours, please give me a call in advance so we can figure out the best time and task for you to do. Separating and planting garlic will be a big job coming up in another week or two. There is also more cleanup work and organizing in the hoophouse.
Thanks again to everyone who came out to the potluck and to everyone who donated a prize. And, thanks so member Sarah Illingworth for taking such nice pictures!
In the share this week:
Salad mix
Arugula and Asian greens
Carrots
Peppers
Eggplant
Winter squash
Onions
Garlic
See you at the farm!
Maggie
