What’s at Market? Week of August 24th
August 25th, 2008 Posted in General RandomnessI won’t be at market tomorrow, sending our top notch crew to take the market on. I have a lot of field work to get done to start preparing for fall cover crops, more fall plantings, and some of our remaining plantings that will overwinter.
Hopefully you saw the email I sent out about Tomatoes. We have a lot of Heirlooms and Slicers right now, so we’re offering a flat price. Also if you want #2 tomatoes for saucing please let us know, we can put a box together for you.
This weather is ideal for veggies to grow. Our fall plantings of broccoli, cauliflower, spinach, and lettuce are all glowing. Should make for a bountiful fall. Our winter squash is getting close to finishing up as well.
This week is the first week that we have our potatoes at market. (The fingerlings are all done) The two varieties we’ll have at market right now are the Carola (Yellow, perfect flavor, our favorite variety) and Rio Colorado (A red skin, white flesh). Try’em out and let us know what you think.
Oh, one more thing, our boy Demian turns one next week and he just started walking this past week. Life is never dull in these parts. We’re loving it!
See you at market!
