My parents came by the farm today and got a deluxe tour with all stages of growing plants and death on this beautiful day!
Hey Everyone, just got back from picking for Saturday morning's Marietta Square Farmer's Market and we have an awesome selection to offer tomorrow! I have some great tasting mixed cherry tomatoes, red and green slicing tomatoes, mixed sweet bell peppers, banana peppers, baby bell peppers, jalapenos, mixed eggplant, basil, some baby daikon and mixed radish bunches with greens, garlic, some baby yellow and zephyr squash, 3 types of kale, collards, bok choy, Carlton and Tokyo Bekana Asian greens, a variety of lettuce heads, and Rainbow Swiss Chard. I will have some green beans from Sapello Farms as well and unfortunately they did get a frost at their farm so the dahlia flowers are ruined. Burma is also bringing her amazing fresh ginger with greens and maybe a little turmeric. Mention your email or this Facebook post and get 6 items for $25 mix and match which includes greens and pre-made baskets of peppers, eggplant, or anything else we can bundle.
Now on to farm news! What a week..... Mark and I got four hoop houses cleared, tilled, and plastic bedding made yesterday as well as our "deer fence" up! I don't know how we did it. Jose hooked up the well water drip tapes which helped and Patti finished planting 4 out of the 12 rows of strawberry plants that I picked up on Tuesday, so hopefully all of the strawberries will be planted by Sunday so I can take a small breather before we plant our garlic and shallots next week. At least ALL of the tractor and field work are finished for the year! We also did not get a frost on our squash, cucumber, bean, and sugar snap pea plants this week, there is hope! Beans are flowering so I hope to have them in a couple of weeks. Still a ton to do, but we see a silver lining. I posted five videos yesterday I think of everything at the farm if you care to look.
Have a great weekend and we hope to see you tomorrow morning!
