<\/a><\/div>\nRADICCHIO This is our second year trying these beauties. They are yummy in a salad.<\/p>\n
HEAD LETTUCE butterheads and red leaf varieties<\/p>\n
SALAD MIX We had some empty space in the high tunnel, so we broadcasted our leftover lettuce seed. It grew nicely and we have enough to share.<\/p>\n
TURNIPS Hakureis from the high tunnel.<\/p>\n
SWEET POTATOES <\/p>\n
BOK CHOY These got pretty large in the high tunnel.<\/p>\n
GARLIC, DILL OR HOT PEPPERS <\/p>\n
SWEET PEPPERS The cold weather has held off so here is one more round of green and ripe peppers.<\/p>\n
SWISS CHARD OR GAI LAN\/BROCCOLI Broccoli leaves are the new “kale” according to some reports. I think they mean Gai lan or “Chinese broccoli” which grows into a small shrub and has tender leaves.<\/p>\n
NEXT WEEK: lettuce, spinach, carrot, herbs, radishes and greens.<\/p>\n
FARM REPORT:
We have been enjoying the farm’s post-season during the day and the Royals post-season at night. What a team! What a fun time for Kansas City and the surrounding community! I hope that the good feelings of togetherness and team spirit continue on after today and permeate other part of our lives. <\/p>\n
The weather is the other local story. It has been unseasonably warm and mild: perfect weather for parade-watching or garlic planting. We did the later this afternoon and hope to have it complete in time for the CSA members on Saturday to mulch all 6,000 cloves.<\/p>\n
<\/a><\/div>\nMost of the harvests are coming out of the high tunnel now. Things look good overall with lots of greens and roots for the extended season. We don’t grow salad mix very often but it filled in nicely in a space where we wanted lettuce quick. You might notice a prickly lettuce imposter trying to hide in the salad mix. He died shortly after this photograph was taken.<\/p>\n
