With Summer, Ch-Changes
by Farmer Derek
It must be summer, basil is ready for harvest.
Harvest #8 (Week B) should include cabbage, beets, kale, endive, Italian dandelion, salad radishes, hakurei turnips, head lettuce, cilantro, dill, zucchini, cucumbers, scallions, and garlic scapes. Some items may be a choice. U-pick* should include herbs, snap/string/green beans, and flowers.
Swiss chard is on hold for a couple of weeks while we wait for new growth; the spring crop was damaged fairly heavily by annoying burrowing larvae miners inside the leaves.
*Besides herbs, and eventually blackberries, all u-pick for the remainder of the season will be in a different field than the peas and strawberries. Instead of taking a right out of the barn, go left and follow the path by the 'pond'. There will be u-pick signs pointing you in the right direction!
**If anyone has a stash of grocery bags to donate to the pick up room, we are currently in need of them. Thank you!
