Wow! What a great share! I'm amazed every week a how much food our little farm is putting out. Crops are growing like crazy! As usual, some things are growing better than others, but wowzers! That's a great haul of food. In years past, we've had to alternate crops from week to week to get a continual harvest all season long. This year, many items have to be harvested every week before they bolt, grow too big, or go to waste. So, enjoy the bounty! I think it's safe to say, you are getting your money's worth this year. :)
New items will be ready next week or soon after - cucumbers, French fillet beans, basil, and kale.
And to top off this great harvest week, there was a lot going on behind the scenes too. We got another entire greenhouse weeded. Shain did more planting. Also, this farming family sneaked off for a 4 day trip to Utah to visit relatives. With school starting soon (Shain is a school teacher), this was probably out last chance to get away for a while. At least until "the grandbaby" comes. That's right! Our daughter Megan is having a baby. (If you click on the Instagram link, right column, you can see a picture taken this weekend.) Unfortunately, she did not coordinate with me on this one and our little granddaughter will come before the farm season ends. So things are going to be interesting around here real soon. With the great Workshares we have, it's likely you'll never even notice my absense for a few days. And our son Eli leaves for college in a few weeks too. Big changes happening around this place.
Have a great week and ENJOY your veggies!
