Hello from the farm,
Well, the beautiful heads of lettuce were transplanted by the thousands yesterday as were the scallions, which were on the heels of 10,000 onion plants. It's a lively time at the farm, and we're all pleased to see these crops going into the ground and getting a great start. The drying wind has given way to some showers and we are grateful for the moisture.
Opening Weekend is the First full week of June: June 7, 8 and 9

Other happenings around the farm: it's never dull here, we had the first run of the organic fertilizer hopper, which ran like a charm, have been working on a potato digger rig for the July potato crop, a harvest rack for holding bins of produce, mending broken and misaligned tools and equipment to name a few, in addition to the weeding and mulching which are mainstays of our farming :-)
Your farmers
