Watered Crops
By Derek McGeehan
Harvest #18 (Week B) should include butternut winter squash, potatoes, garlic, scallions, onions, kale, chard, lettuce, tomatoes, eggplant, sweet peppers, hot peppers, carrots, okra, chives, leeks, and radishes. Some items will be a choice and may not be available on all pick up days. U-pick should include cherry tomatoes, husk cherries, tomatillos, flowers, and herbs. Unless it rains soon, the majority of u-pick crops will end very soon.
Freshly cultivated and irrigation dependent kale, napa cabbage, fennel, broccoli and other fall crops appreciate the dry weather, as long as we can give them the water they need. In our soils, a little goes a long way. These beds are drip irrigated which has been temporarily removed for cultivation purposes.
