Every week we expect a smaller produce bag, but we still have a lot in the Field, and even more that will be ready for the final field picking in a few weeks.  We planted another round of Beets, Cabbage, Cauliflower, Broccoli, in the field which has been under frost cover, and we expect to have Broccoli in the next week or so, depending on the weather we will see how large we can manage to grow it before the snow starts to fly and the daytime temperatures remain below zero.
The greenhouse is growing, the Lettuce Mix and Radish will be ready to pick in the next few weeks, and Turnips and Spinach are not far behind.  The Kale is the most impressive to us as we didn’t expect to be able to pick before January, but we already have great sized leaves, and our goal of Kale throughout the year will likely be possible!
November 29th will be another round of fresh Chicken, if you would like to order and stock up for winter, we have a lot available. These will be smaller and in the 4-6lb range.  Any remaining we will freeze for pickup throughout the winter as we wait for Spring to return.  For those wondering, on December 5th the last 5 pigs goto Ken R. Mogk butcher shop, and we will once again have Onion Sage Sausage, Peameal Bacon, Back Bacon, and the Thick Cut Bacon.

Have a great week!

Many of you have seen, some of you have heard. We have had a rather busy year, building; farming got in the way. But we made it, we have a new large greenhouse and we have some heat to keep it from freezing. We can produce food year round! Our goal is to provide cool weather crops in January and February like Kale, Swiss Card, Spinach, Kale, Beets, Fennel, Cabbage, Lettuce Mix, Arugula, and some other surprises. Come the end of February we will transplant tomatoes enabling us to deliver you the most delicious tomatoes from early June right to the end of December.

The larger greenhouse will also make transition between crops easier as we have more greenhouse space, so we will always be able to produce a consistent amount of produce every month of the year… eventually…

For those who have not seen and been to the farm, this is the mess you you missed.

And the story continues…

For most farms September is the busy month as we start to harvest almost all crops planted, from Leeks, Squash, Brussel Sprouts, to almost everything seems to be ripe and ready to be picked.  The produce bag is rather large this week, and yet we have a lot more out there, so if you want something you do not see just ask we may have it, but not in large quantities.
It is time to order your Thanksgiving Turkey! This year most Turkeys are in the 10-20lb range,  we got them 2 weeks later than normal as the last few years the Turkeys were a little too large. So this year they are about 6-10lb now, and we hope to have them in the 10-22lb range with at most 16+lbs.  We raised 3 different varieties, so we should have a nice range of weights and sizes.
We also have a few frozen Whole Chickens around the 5-7lb range, and some Chicken Drums, Thighs, Breasts, and Wings for sale.  Although the pork supply is slowly dwindling, we  have 5 pigs going on September 16th so we will have a full freezer again with Bacon, Hams, Roasts, and more delicious sausage!   We also have a half cow being made into more Summer Sausage, this went to the butcher in August, but the smoking and curing process takes a few weeks and we hope to have the summer sausage back for Thanksgiving.

We are now in full tomato season with all our wonderful varieties ripe.  From Black Krim, Purple Boy, Brandywine, Beefsteak, to Earl of Edgecombe, Yellow Boy and our vast variety of Cherry Tomatoes.  August has indeed arrived, cool nights and the most wonderful days.
We are almost done processing our Garlic, and we hope to have a large selection right until the Sprint.  Our onions are currently curing, and in early September we will be processing them, and getting them into storage as well.
This week we will be starting to pick some of our Beets, and trying to transplant a lot more items for the fall season.  If you want to order a chicken for August 30th butcher, or a Turkey for Thanksgiving, let us know we have some available.

Tomatoes are coming!  We did manage start picking them last week in quantities that are making it to the farmers market. Although a little behind from last year, we have a good amount on the vines,so we hope to have a great September!  This week we pickup more baby chicks for the Thanksgiving butcher. If you want a Thanksgiving turkey or chicken, place your order. We also have some chickens available for the August 30th pickup as well.
This week we are processing garlic and picking Onions, and it seems the irrigation is now running 24×7 as we run into the beautiful summer days of August.
