LETTUCE  blushed butter oaks.  Lacewings eat aphids which can sometimes be a pest in protected environments like the high tunnel.  It is nice to see our beneficial friends.<\/p>\n

ARUGULA  big leaves from the high tunnel.<\/p>\n

RADISHES  sweet red ones from the high tunnel<\/p>\n

BROCCOLI\/GAI LAN  the bunches will include both – stems, leaves, buds are all edible.<\/p>\n

SPINACH the first pick from the high tunnel<\/p>\n

CILANTRO  big plants are thriving in the high tunnel<\/p>\n

TOKYO BEKANA  This is a new one for all of us.  Similar to Napa cabbage but more open.  It grew pretty large, so plan on some stir fry or coleslaw soon in your future.  <\/p>\n

BULB FENNEL  from the field.<\/p>\n

POTATOES choice of Desiree or Fingerling varieties<\/p>\n

NEXT WEEK:  lettuce, carrots, greens, herbs, garlic<\/p>\n

FARM REPORT:<\/p>\n

Once again post-season baseball for our hometown team, the Kansas City Royals, coincides with our post-season.  The extended season for 53 shares starts this week with greens from the high tunnel, fennel and broccoli from the field and potatoes from storage.  <\/p>\n

The farm has been a quiet place these past few days.  The employees and apprentices finished their season on Saturday. Before they left, we built a big raised bed with old stones from the barn.  After the deluge we experienced this summer, raised beds seem like a safe bet.  <\/p>\n
