Farm News

We are making good progress on our sweet potatoes but aren’t quite through the planting. Our cover crop got the rain it needed to germinate and is looking lush and lovely. Our brand new tractor that we invested in this season is in the shop for the third time!! At least it is still under warranty…but the sole reason we got it was to have something reliable. So all in all, we’ve had a typical week on the farm– too busy to get through the entire to-do list, with ups and downs experienced while we attempt to!

Recipes

Gremolata with Roasted Turnips

Greens and Cheese Strata (arugula and/or braising greens is perfect greens choice)

Coming Up Next Week (our best guess….) Butternut Squash, Carrots, Sweet Potatoes, Beets, Parlsey, Salad Mix, Onions, Garlic, Arugula and more!
