[note: this is from 10/3/14--I am late getting these up online]
Finally we had our rain--4 of the last 7 days. So we went from dusty to muddy in a short time. Our fall greens are growing now. Seeds that were put in a month ago have finally germinated and sprouted. So 3 weeks or so we will have plenty--pac chois, arrugula, broccoli raab and spinach will all be coming in for our last 6 to 8 weeks of deliveries. We're still picking peppers, eggplants and tomatoes as well as several types of beans--by the end of the month all these should be about done.
Due to the last week of wet weather we have not dug our sweet potatoes yet, hopefully this week coming up. Winter squashs are still left in the field awaiting harvets, though some of each are in our barns for storage then distribution over the next several weeks.
Fall far tour and pumpkin picking on Saturday, Oct 18th. Call for info and reservestasts at 631-726-1900 between 9 and 4 daily.
Happy fall!
Organically yours,
Farmer Bill
