FARM REPORT:
We can’t remember the farm looking more lush and vibrant.
Washing the spinach |
We have had the perfect weather for leaf growth and hence you are getting many greens this week. Swiss chard leaves as big as our heads cannot grow forever. They must be eaten now or never! Today we harvested and washed the spinach.
It can’t be the case that all is perfect on the farm. The asparagus crop was a big disappointment this year. It gave us barely enough to include a few times in the extended season, but now it is done for the year. We hope that next year will see some improvement.
