We hope everyone had a wonderful summer solstice! Strawberries and Cherry Tomatoes are ripe and with this heat, we will be overloaded!  We have a lot of Strawberries, and will also have a lot of ripe Cherry tomatoes. We are excited as the field produce is now ready, from Kholrabi, Beets, Lettuce, and Zucchini and garlic scapes. It seems the heat came quickly and everything will be ripening!  Summer is here!
We are starting to see the greenhouse large slicer tomatoes turn color, so maybe in a few weeks they will be ripe! In other exciting news, the Cucumbers are starting and will have a few ripe this week as well
This week we are butchering chickens! If you want a fresh chicken for pickup on Friday let us know!  They goto the butcher Friday morning and will return to the farm Friday evening.  If you want a parted out chicken, let us know they will not arrive until the following week for Pickup July 4th

Today is the day we picked a decent amount of strawberries! 16 Monday, 8 Tuesday, 15 Wednesday, and today 42. So the season is starting a few days later than last year, but the patch is looking great! For those who know their varieties, we have the smaller sweet Wendy variety ripe and a few Jewels starting to ripen. As the weeks go by we will also have Cabot and finally Malwina, with the every bearing St Laurent also starting soon!

We have the first ripe cherry tomatoes turning red and hopefully we have enough to start picking next week.  We have a great crop of Strawberries but none have yet to turn red, maybe next week, come on SUN!  We also have a lot of summer squash from Zuchinni of many colors to the small Patty Pans so we hope to add the first few surprises this week!  If you want to order some we will indeed have some in limited supply.

Spring is here, although it may not look like it this morning. This weekend we had another baby goat, we now have 3 healthy baby goats and one calf with more to come. Our first batch of chickens are in the barn, under a heat lamp chirping away splashing in the water then piling up on each other under the heat lamp.
We have been trying to pick and clean out the large greenhouse to make room for our tomato Transplants. When we built the new greenhouse we thought we would not have crop rotation issues, but since we plant every inch, rotation from one crop to the next is always a challenge. We also planted some early Peppers and Eggplant we will also try to find room to plant in the greenhouse as we transition to the cold frames and field.  Hopefully these will produce earlier and also extend the season longer.  Our goal of transplanting our tomatoes on April 15th has come and gone, but we are making progress and likely will get a few rows transplanted this week.

March is here, and since we have more sunny days the greenhouses are really starting to grow. Our Lettuce Mix and Spinach will soon be a weekly regular in the produce bags.

The produce bag this week will have two new additions, Carrots and Cilantro! We had this idea that more greenhouse space would ease our crop rotation struggles, but if you have a spot to plant something, you do! So here we are, trying to get the tomatoes transplanted in 2 weeks and the greenhouse still full of veggies. We have 3 beds of 28 free, and our goal is to have 10 available in a few weeks for tomatoes and another 4 available end of March for Eggplant and Pepper and shortly after that another bed for cucumbers. We have a lot of picking to do!
