Update from the Farm

Well, I haven't been able to update this blog as often as I would like to here lately. We have been busy harvesting, weeding (although the weeds are winning at this time!), getting our house in town on the market to sell, plus trying to make building plans for our new home on the farm. It has been a busy summer! The gardens are growing nicely (along with the weeds and grass) and we are getting great harvests. I hope to have our farmstand open in the next week or two, for those of you who are interested. I will post on here the day and time it will be open, if you would like to come email me for directions. I will probably try to post an ad in the local Reminder too if I feel we will have enough to sell. The CSA is going well and we hope to expand the garden and add more members for next season, so if you are interested email us and we will put you on a waiting list. I have one name on it so far. Some of the things we have been harvesting in the last couple weeks are:
zucchini
summer squash
cucumbers
bell peppers
jalapeno peppers
cherry tomatoes
onions
cabbage
radishes
green beans
red potatoes
sweet corn and large tomatoes (just this week)
mixed flower bouquets (this week)
and I am sure I am forgetting something...but we have been blessed with abundant harvests for our members and our own family as well. God is good.
