What’s at Market? Week of May 18th
May 19th, 2008 Posted in What's @ Market ?
Hot! That’s all I have to say. I think we made it through the heat wave. We’re hoping all the veggies do the same. We lost a round of broccoli to bolting and the flea beatles have come out in force to munch on certain brassica crops but all in all we did fine.
Tomorrow is supposedly going to be cloudy and cool. Farming in changing times. Our diversity of crops is the key…..
- Arugula
- Bok Choy
- Braising Mix
- Chard
- Cilantro
- Collards
- Kale
- Lettuces (Red Butterhead, Red Leaf, Green Leaf, Romaine,Green Butterhead)
- Sweet Onions (Just the first few bunched up)
- Radishes
- Salad Mix
- Spinach
- Salad Turnips
- Purple Top Turnips
Strawberries keep threatening to be on the way…. There’s a load of berries out in the field, just not quite ripe yet.
And to finish this evening I thought I’d add a picture of our handsome boy Demian…….Giving his Poppa a “Why are you pointing that camera phone at me again?” look…

What a cute little boy — he & Sammy have very similar noses

Glad to see that your baby did not bolt in all that heat!
