Notes from Green Thumb Farm

Category: 


Welcome back!

Our CSA season is beginning. Our crops in the field are in full swing. We have had a cold May - very rainy with many cold nights, so our plantings have been delayed somewhat. This will effect crops all summer, as harvest will be delayed one or two weeks. Our early lettuce is ready with about 15 varieties planted. We will have plenty of radishes - red, French Breakfast, purple, and Easter Egg mix are all planted. Peppercress, a spicy salad herb, will be on our first week's menu. There will be strawberries as well! Our strawberry crop looks wonderful at this time, and as long as there is no extended rainy weather, it should be a good year for them and us.

Our spring farm tour/strawberry picking is happening Saturday, June 21, with several walking tours throughout the day. More on this next time.

Organically yours,

Farmer Bill
