Notes from Green Thumb Farm
July is here and our summer crops are doing well. Tomatoes, peppers, and eggplants--many varieties of each will be here soon! We're still picking lots of lettuces and greens--mustard, Swiss chards, radicchios, beets, onions, carrots, some broccolis. We're still picking peas but only for another week or so. Beans and squashes have started, and some herbs are picking well too. Plenty to enjoy now and plenty to look forward to. More...
July 4th we finally got a good rain soaking--about 2 inches--since then it's been dry again. Starting to set up some irrigation on lettuces, kales, beets and carrots.
Last week we began planting our fall crops--Brussel sprouts, broccoli, cauliflowers, and many types of kales. All for picking October and November. Winter squash have been planted and are doing well, as are our sweet potatoes. So until next time, happy eating, enjoy the seasonal produce becuse it changes fast.
Organically yours,
Farmer Bill
