What’s at market? Week of May 4th
May 5th, 2008 Posted in What's @ Market ?The weather is finally cooperating with us. Sweet! Things are really starting to grow now and as we assumed it looks as if a lot of successions of veggies will end up being ready at the same time. This means lots and lots of produce. Not a bad thing.
We’ve been busy getting more transplants out into the field, including the 20,000 or so Onions we planted last Friday (our crew rocks!), direct seeding more veggies, and tilling in the remaining cover crops to open up the last section of the garden.
It’s really rolling now…..
So this week at market:
- Arugula
- Salad Mix
- Spinach
- Bok Choy
- Broccoli Raab
- Green Garlic
- Kale- Red Russian and Dinosaur- New from this spring’s planting! Survived 21 degrees!
- Leeks
- Radishes
- Salad Turnips - The greens are great too.
- Red Mustard
Chard and Collards are on the way. As well as Purple Top Turnips. And we’re looking at another week or so before Head Lettuces start rolling in. Maybe spring will stay around for awhile.
Here’s a picture of the new Kale taken as we were harvesting today.
I’ve decided to capitalize the names of vegetables from now on. I think they deserve “proper” respect.
