FarmWLIG Online Market Closed Wk 26



Melons all lined up, for now. Just wait a month for the twisty-macrame-hodgepodge.

Farm Where Life is Good

No Online Market this week, but regular Produce Subscription/CSA delivery is planned

We are very sorry for our inability to service the Online Market this week. We hope to open again next week!

All of the teenaged melon transplants are firmly seated in their new field homes. Several of the annual herbs are spreading their transplanted roots as well this weekend (with at least one day of dryness!) Beans are poking about 4" above the soil (new one this year— Fava Beans…any Hannibal fans?) Peas have been eaten down to within 1" of the soil by troublesome deer. Cucumbers and squash are getting painted white tomorrow with kaolin clay against the pesky beetles. Specialty and pickling field cucumbers are also getting their trellises installed to start their climbing lives.

Sounds like a lot of activity to not be able to open the market. Sad but true. This weird spring (and Rog’s weird belly) have things all turned around. But starting to straighten out.

Produce Subscription/CSA boxes look like:
Napa/Chinese cabbage
Spring cabbage
Broccolini
Lettuce
Potatoes
Kale
Salad mix
Herb bundle

Have a happy week.

We hope to feed you soon!

Roger and Lara
