CSA Week 15

This Week’s Harvest

Farm News

This week brought heavy harvests, cool finds, but sadly no rain.

Audrey is our resident arrowhead finder. She has found so many in the 4 years she has worked here including this one found Friday.

While I have seen many katydids on the farm this was the first time I noticed how leaf like their wings are.

Surprise harvest! The newest planting of cantaloupe fell off my radar and it was dumb luck I happened to notice it needed to be picked on Saturday evening. Being the weekend, we called on Evan to help bring it in! The bin looks and smells amazing!

We need rain very badly so it was disappointing when yesterday’s rain missed us completely. We can keep our vegetable crops alive and growing but we planted 6 acres of cover crop that we need mother nature to take care of. I don’t want to complain but it’s been a very stressful dry few weeks!

Recipes

Coming Up Next Week (our best guess…….) Red onions, watermelon, tomatoes, celery, escarole, salad mix, potatoes, kale and more!
