2022-csa-week-3-share

We’re really starting to bring in the bounty of summer, and we’re pleased with the diversity of produce we’re able to include this week, and in the weeks ahead. We included pink, very sweet tomatoes (the variety is Tomimaru Muchoo), and some large green bell peppers. We were finally able to pick a good amount of snap peas, and with these July days peaking in the mid-80s, we’re just hoping the plants hold on for another week or two so the developing peas are able to reach maturity. Our crew is still spending about 2/3 of their week seeding and transplanting. We’ve never had so many plants in the ground at this point in the year, and we’ve also (mostly) stayed on top of weeding, so very few crops have been overtaken by weeds. The days are also very long and hot, so we work hard to keep spirits up so we can bring you our bounty of vegetables. Thank you for supporting our farm!
