The Mineralization Tank maximizes the nutritional extraction from fish p**p, and is very important to overall system health.

It's important to remove solids regularly, because a buildup could cause denitrification, anerobic bacterial growth, and poor system performance. By making a great environment for heterotrophic bacteria, we can basically compost a liquid to boost nutrients in the system!

This photo goes out to my township zoning inspector, who wrote me a citation for "miscellaneous debris piled in field" because I had a pile of old greenhouse plastic.

Well, now we know why I had that pile- to recycle into low tunnel covers.

Very excited to have more fall crops in than ever before. It's going to be an abundant fall!

I think the title "greens king" sounds nice...

Seriously though, leafy greens are slammed full of vitamins you need. As we go into cold/flu/COVID season, eating fresh food that hasn't lost all its nutrition and flavor in the back of a semi truck makes a huge difference. You can get greens like these, as well as tons of other delicious stuff, delivered to your door.

An exciting announcement, featuring a bouquet I made from flowers I grew this year:

I'm very excited to announce the birth of my son Josiah 8/27 at 4:25am. Up early, like any good farmer. Momma and baby are healthy and praise God everything went very smoothly. We are already home and resting, absolutely smitten by little fingers and toes.

I may be harder to reach than normal for a little bit as I try to sleep when I can and work on his upcoming training videos as he prepares to take over as greenhouse manager next week 😉

See you at market on Saturday! We are not posting photos on social media to protect his privacy, but feel free to ask at market and I'll pull up a photo to show you :)

Dear farm journal-
This week felt like taking a deep breath. The proverbial calm after a storm (which is kind of ironic, because a heavy storm was one of the things that made me feel relieved). The creek was full of water, and I was able to divert it to the pond to fill it back up.

This week, the fish mortality has slowed to a stop. From a peak of 665 in a day to just a handful. In total, about half of the fish died from the outbreak. Unfortunate, frustrating, and tough. It's a helpless feeling watching it happen knowing there really isn't anything you can do but pray that it stops. The surviving fish have regained their appetite and hopefully it will only be easier at this lower stocking density to get a great yield this fall.

The greenhouse is looking full and verdant. I put up a shade cloth and used rain to refill the grow bed so the plants are quite happy. The basil looks better than ever, and y'all are really sleeping on this purple mustard! It's phenomenally delicious and gorgeous. I started a test tray of some new varieties of lettuce to see how they do in my greenhouse. Especially excited for "Cool Mint" romaine and a red romaine from High Mowing Organic Seeds.

The tractor rabbits are growing well. I should have meat available again soon. This week I had 3 litters born. Not huge, but acceptable size litters.

Started picking zucchini, squash, and cucumbers heavily. Unfortunately my tomatoes are still catching up. I may hit them with some fish fertilizer and see if I can boost them. Plenty of time left for them, just really far behind. I did plant new mini tomatoes in the greenhouse, which will likely fruit before the outdoor crop. I'll be meeting with NRCS this next week to see if we can do an EQIP grant to put up a tomato high tunnel so cold, rainy springs don't ruin the crop again. Acorn squash, pie pumpkins, cantaloupes went in today.

Feeling better this week than last. As you may know, I'm awaiting my first child in August, so I'm working extra now to make sure I'm set for the rest of the season. What a wild year it has been, and how wild it soon shall be.

I dare say, I think it's finally summer. All four of these items are available to the CSA this week. Cucumbers, baby mustard, fresh garlic, and zucchinis!

It's been a very tough week at the farm. Dear journal, when does it get easier? Still dealing with the ESC outbreak in the pond, creeping up on 50% mortality now. Doing what I can to mitigate the damage and praying it ends.

Deliveries was rough on Tuesday. Van broke down 8 stops in, and delayed me several hours before I could finish the route in my pickup. Between just Monday and Tuesday, I'm at 29 hours.

There is still so much to get done, but it feels good snacking on cucumbers as I work. Very happy with the mini snacking cucumbers I have this year. My salad cukes look great. Pickling cukes didn't handle the heat stress quite as well.

Should be picking hot peppers very soon. Jalapenos on the CSA this week. Hungarian wax, poblanos, habeneros soon. Tomatoes still playing catch-up but the cherries may start next week.

Greenhouse is looking fresh and full of green. I put in even more strawberries because you all are loving them so much!

February chickens have started laying. Surprisingly the green layers came first.

Thanks for your support over this crazy summer. If I didn't have any problems, it'd be a lot less interesting.

We are almost there, and I can't wait.
I'm craving a sauteed zucchini.
I want to slice a cucumber and lightly salt them.
I need my tomato-mayo sandwiches.

The groundhog army launched an incredible offensive this spring. It seems they learned some recruiting tactics from the local rabbit platoon. Their efforts left my cauliflower a total loss, and my cabbages significantly diminished.

I learned they love freshly sprouted cucumbers and squash. I would plant, they would sprout, and the next day be gone entirely. This cycle repeated for three weeks until I finally defended them long enough to get a few leaves on. Apparently they don't taste as good at that point, and I finally have mini cukes, pickling cukes, and salad cukes flowering and setting fruit. Better late than never.

The zucchini are catching up. The first zucchinis will be harvested this week, with summer squash quickly behind them. The high tunnel is jamming - here's a first: I picked jalapenos before any tomatoes. The cold, rainy weather left my tomatoes ugly and sad. I had to replant about half of them. Just now seeing the first small fruits. My hope is that by end of July, I'll have forgotten about the poor weather entirely and they'll catch up.

It's been an awesomely weird season, but the abundance is beginning! Pardon me, I'm off the replant my edamame (darn, it grass grizzlies!!!)

It is the end of an era at the farm. The white leghorn hen (facing away, sorry, best I could find from 2022) has passed.

She was the sole survivor from the original flock at the farm. She laid the first egg at the farm. And she took her job seriously- laying eggs up until the day before she passed. It feels bittersweet to think about how far we've come since they original flock and the history that hen was a part of.

She survived fires, floods, and countless storms. She always claimed the highest perch for her nightly rest like she was queen of the flock. Never satisfied to stay in the fence, she wandered the farm eating bugs like she was trying to eradicate them.

She was my only white egg layer, so if you get a white egg in your box this week, cherish it. ❤️
